Apparently, you should always drop a penny into a Christmas Stocking. I just don't remember why! Anyone know?? I wonder if it has something to do with the old story of Saint Nicholas dropping the three coins into those stockings years ago. I only wish I had thought to ask. Funny how traditions work!
