Dear Ulisses While living in England and also working there many times on Xtmas time, we had something we, brazilians, call “Amigo Secreto” and I still remember them calling it “Mistery friend” and mostly “Secret Santa”.There was something I found really interesting about it, the head of the whole thing would ask to each of us to write five things, either reasonable ones or nothing too expensive,as a wishing list for not taking the risk of receiving something uselessat the end of the party, everybody would end up taking home something chosen and useful. I hope my tip help somehow. Many thanks for your amazing site! Merry Xtmas to your family and you. Leonora • 6 years ago. Dear Ulisses, Thanks for your daily tips.

I have a comment on this topic. I was born in the south of Brazil (RS), where the culture is deeply influenced by our german origins. When I was a small kid, my granma used to tell stories about the “Cristquintia” (that’s how she spelled it). We all understood that character was Santa Claus himself. Only when I was 20 and started to learn German, I asked my teacher about that, and the explanation was very simple – and interesting – and certainly relates to your post of today: The correct german expression was “Christ Kindchen”, “kindchen” being a diminutive form for “kind” (child, kid) – so kindchen = small child = BABY!

SO “KRISS KRINGLE” or “CHRIST CHILD” or “Christkindl” or “Christkindchen” might be variations from a common origin. John Hammond Wicked Grin Rar Download on this page. See also these sites – I must confess I’ve just found them on Google, so I’ll have a look at them over the weekend; It seems the Christkinchen is also popular in the USA: MERRY XMAS TO YOU AND ALL YOUR READERS!
