Saint Nicholas

Posted on Updated on

Today is the feast of st. Nicholas…the inspiration for Santa Claus.  Saint Nicholas was known for giving gifts is not only the patron saints of kids but also of brewers!

So in honor of the red suite white bearded guy…today’s song is:

Santa Claus is coming to town

My favorite version of this song is Bruce Springsteen’s Rock ‘n’ roll version. It just gives you that upbeat feeling that you get when something exciting is about to happen. I absolutely love it. Also, the cartoon named after this song is in the same animation as “Rudolph the red nose reindeer”, a Christmas classic.

I wish I had more to say…as Saint Nicholas history is extremely interesting. But when you have a child, Blogs get short.
