12 Days of Christmas origin

Post by Terrylee5151 » Sat Aug 16, 2008 4:48 am

I wanted to do the 12 days of Christmas gag gifts and wondered when to do them, so I looked it up and here is what I found. I thought it would start before Christmas and end on Christmas day or the day before...was I ever wrong. I thought this interesting.

That is a nice link with some interesting facts. I imagine that most people are not aware of the origins and just enjoy the song.
