Merry Christmas and Recipe of a Chikki

Merry Christmas to all my Friend....Enjoy your day with lots of fun!!!

Santa the Magical Person
Christmas is a very special time for many children -- the day presents are left by a magical person.

Christmas is the time of year that children from all over the world await with wide-eyed anticipation. Brightly wrapped packages are left under the Christmas tree or in a sack at the end of their bed. But how do the gifts get there? Who puts them there? Most children, faced with this line of questioning, will barely contain their excitement when they describe a jovial elderly gentleman in a big red coat and a large white beard.

Make a wish dear children.....Santa is on the way of your home….

However, most of his illustrations added to what is now the modern day concept of Santa. Among his additions to the story were the following:

* Santa lived at the North Pole (thus, making him a “citizen of the world.”)
* He wore fur suits
* Elves assisted in his toy workshop
* Children wrote Santa letters
* He kept a list of all who were “naughty or nice”
* Bad children were not rewarded with gifts
Nast’s engravings were popular throughout the country, appealing to both rich and poor, literate and illiterate alike.

In the United States of the late 18th-century, Christmas in most parts of the newly formed country centered around drinking, eating, and raucous noisemaking. However, this would change during the 1800s when Christmas became a quieter, more child centered and family oriented event.

This post is special those friends which are eagerly waiting for this recipe....Thanks for your polite request for chikki. Your request is always valuable for me. :)
