Leaving cookies and milk out for Santa Claus can be traced back to Norse mythology, in which children, during the Yule season, would leave food out for Sleipner, Odin’s eight-legged horse, in hopes of receiving gifts in return for their help on his travels. (Adam Louis/Observer)

Thought St. Nick wasn’t there that day, there are cookies and milk waiting for him when he stops by. A photo session with Santa scheduled earlier this month at the museum had to be canceled this year due to recent COVID restrictions. (Adam Louis/Observer)
