We used to bake "reindeer treats" every year for Santa's reindeer. They were like little gooey oatmeal cookie concoctions, and we would set them out for Santa & reindeer. The year I figured out there was no Santa Claus, Mom still wanted to bake them...but I was like "I'm only baking them if I get to eat some, too!" because I had figured out that, after I went to bed, Mom and Dad ate all the delicious gooey reindeer treats!
I think after that year we quit making them.
