My family is Danish and so growing up we would leave our shoes out for Kris Kringle to fill with toys and candy unless you were bad, then he was supposed to fill them with mice or snakes or coal. It would scare me so bad worrying that he would think I had been bad and put mice in my shoes!

Legend has it that if you don't satiate with ample amounts of kibble the hunger of the beast that is Keia, she will rise up Christmas morning from her slumber and annihilate her caretakers with her fiery breath followed by her drowning drool. The exact amount of kibble necessary to keep her at ease is unknown. There is a mathematical algorithm that supposedly holds the key, but to this date even the world's greatest minds have yet to solve the equation. Every Christmas eve we simply dish out the goods and hope it is enough.

Isn't there some story about a Santa that lights fires to the houses of naugthy people?? I swear there is.

As a kid it was "if you aren't good, Santa will find out and cancel Christmas". **shudder** HELLO! nothing is scarier as a kid!

I was very happy after one Christmas to find this to be an urban "mom's" myth. Nothing was ever the same after that....
