Sinterklaas Kapoentje is December 5th in Holland. Petra explains in "Saint Nicholas and Pete" I had a Dutch friend here who celebrated it. Frances always made bags of cookies or chocolates or something. One year she gifted me "Skin so Soft" for my travels. I still have it. Frances and Tweetie from December 2008: (Dutch) Sinterklaas Kapoentje, Leg wat in mijn schoentje, Leg wat in mijn laarsje, Dank je Sinterklaasje! (English) Saint Nicholas, Little Rascal, Put something into my little shoe, Put something into my little boot, Thank you, little Saint Nicholas! The shoes and boots became stockings in the USA.

I mean to say ... it couldn't hurt making up a batch a day and sending them our way! I 'cook' by grabbing whatever's handy. Usually two pieces of bread and whatever can't scurry away fast enough. That last piece of bologna was real s l o w last night. Cashew brittle? I love cashews." ¯\_༼ •́ ͜ʖ •̀ ༽_/¯ 3.338 |
