GERMAN CHRISTMAS TRADITION; AFTER ALL THE OTHER ORNAMENTS WERE HUNG ON THE TREE, THE PICKLE ORNAMENT WAS HIDDEN SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE BRANCHES... THE PICKLE BRINGS GOOD LUCK. ON CHRISTMAS MORNING, THE FIRST CHILD TO FIND THE GHERKIN WAS REWARDED WITH AN ADDITIONAL SMALL PRESENT LEFT BY ST. NICHOLAS. WHAT ARE YOUR CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS?
