Happy St. Nicholas Day

My family has always celebrated St. Nicholas Day (December 6th).  Each year as children, we would place our slippers outside our bedroom door before going to bed and awake the next morning to new slippers filled with treats.  I have decided to continue this tradition for Eva.  She awoke to fuzzy new pink slippers filled with Sesame Street crayons and playdough tools.  I also made her these:

The cookies have magnets in them to help them stick to the pan.


The apron is made from a dishtowel.  I'm getting a little more adventurous so I added a ruffle to this one.


I also made the cookies and aprons for my nieces (their aprons had ribbon flowers) but I forgot to take pictures.

Happy St. Nicholas Day everyone!  May your shoes be full of treats today!
