Meet Zwarte Piet

Ok. I want to begin this post with an explanation that you may find this offensive, but it's a Dutch tradition...this would never fly in America.

"Black Pete" can be good and he can be bad following around St. Nick - giving kids candy if they are good. OR if they are bad he might beat them with a tree branch or stuff them in a bag and take them to Spain. The choice is up to you kids! All of this takes place on December 5.
