MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- It's described as a taste of Christmas before the big day. Monday, December 6th will bring St. Nick's Day to families across Southeast Wisconsin. It's a curious tradition that's taken root in the Midwest but even many who celebrate are unaware of its origins.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning Rose Schmidt explored the traditions of the annual feast and how St. Nick became a household name around the Milwaukee area.
