After they've finished beating him, they look under the blanket to find the log has, erm, excreted lots of treats. Christmas Eve is generally a bigger deal in Finland than Christmas Day, with the latter generally being a quieter affair.
In the city of Turku, a ceremony that announces the beginning of the Christmas peace period takes place at midday, and this period lasts for 20 days. People will eat rice porridge and plum fruit juice for breakfast on Christmas Eve. There is also a tradition to hide almonds in the porridge, and the finder of these will have a lucky year. Although Easter is celebrated more than Christmas in Greece, that isn't to say the festive holiday isn't important. On Christmas Eve, children go from house to house playing music and singing carols in return for treats.
Another tradition is to wrap a wooden cross in fresh basil and use it to sprinkle water around the house to keep away goblins called Killantzaroi.

Poundland are selling pre-wrapped Secret Santa presents Your privacy is important to us. Dec 05, MsS rated it liked it Shelves: Dec 28, Pete W rated it really liked it. In this short story, we got secret Christmas shopping, hidden camera video, fun in the snow action, and reminiscence. We also got a glimpse of the MCs' personalities, some of their friends and their live together.
It would be fun to read more about how they met, how their friends meddling got them together and how much they gloat that over Aaron: Dec 26, Susan rated it liked it Shelves: This was a really sweet story. Ben and Aaron are settling into their first Christmas together, learning about each other's traditions and making new ones of their own. The part about Cat made me laugh as I spent what seemed like 2 hours on Christmas Day changing the clothes on my niece's Build-A-Bear rabbit, Oh, and there's nothing strange about saving gift bags for next year's presents!
Dec 05, Shannon Pendleton rated it it was amazing Shelves: I read it twice, I loved it so much! It's best read in front of a crackling fire with a mug of hot chocolate while nestled down under a warm blanket. What's not love about a well-written romance with a steamy side of sex?
Dec 26, Jen rated it liked it Shelves: Despite some questionable prose construction, I really enjoyed this story. I had no idea where it was going at first, but it took a turn that surprised and delighted me. There were some genuinely laugh-out-loud hilarious moments, and some very sweet, tender moments. I loved Ben and Aaron's opposites-attract dynamic. Dec 27, Meggie rated it really liked it Shelves: This short Christmas story is really sweet and full of true meaning of Christmas, Love.
I liked it a lot, even if it's to short. I wouldn't mind reading a real longer version of Aaron and Ben romance.
