Sleighbells Ring, Are You Listening

It's nearly that time of year again. The time when people all over the world get together to celebrate the birth of Jesus. They also get to receive a lot of gifts thanks to old St Nick. The long ago European Bishop Nicholas is now a round faced, red suited gentleman who can be found in every department store in Britain, Europe and the US of A.

How did he cross the Atlantic you might ask? Well he or rather the tradition that is accredited to him was brought to the new world in the 16th Century.

So now you know why you are stuck not only with cooking a huge dinner but with buying bagloads of presents. If you find that you're stuck for ideas this year then look around. Christmas Gifts and Gift Baskets are an absolute boon to the overburdened and out of ideas housewife. So check them out then you may find you have the time to listen out for St Nick's Sleighbells come Christmas Eve.
