The Saint-Nicolas Festival (la Saint-Nicolas) on December 6th is a very important traditional festival in the north and east of France. The children who eat the traditional milk little man bread are looking forward to Saint Nicholas, the legendary Santa Claus, who will bring various gifts to themselves at Christmas.
In the past, these breads were in the shape of horses, pigs, chickens, rabbits or demons, which had the meaning of exorcism. People drive away the dangers of winter and get rid of bad luck at any cost. I was wise to bring the "Retirement Villain", hoping that the coming year will be smooth and prosperous^^"
