SNAC #20: Pickle Ornament
One of my favorite Christmas traditions is the hiding of the Pickle Ornament. Legend has it it was an old German tradition where the pickle was the last ornament placed on the tree and Christmas morning the first child to find the pickle hidden in the tree would receive a special gift and be blessed with good luck for the coming year.
In our house, we award the person who finds the pickle the honor of opening the first gift! It's a fun tradition and a quirky ornament we look forward to unpacking from the boxes of ornaments each year.
