Today, I have a random fun fact about Christmas!

In the Ukraine, it is considered to be good luck to find a spider on Christmas morning. This is based on a folk tale about a woman who was so poor that she couldn't afford Christmas decorations. According to this tale, she awoke on Christmas morning to find that spiders had covered her children's tree with webs. When the sun shone on the tree, the webs turned to silver and gold. Ukrainian Christmas trees often feature an artificial spider and web decoration.
