What a day!?!
Our usual Tuesday Ladies Nite ended up being on Valentine's Day, so to make it even more special we had a Mexican night at Shanna's place. I brought all the fixen's ('cept sour cream...totally forgot that) but we DID have queso (made from yummy Velvetta), white corn chips, guacamole, flour tortillas, hard taco shells, hamburger meat with taco seasoning, Jalapenos, and so much more. I was stuffed!!!
We still made room for Chicka's tasty Japanese dessert - mochi balls, red bean sauce, and green tea ice cream....bit interesting, but not so bad! Plus, we had strawberries, whip cream, and lots of chocolates. On top of that, we all watched BEWITCHED and lounged around till 11. Nice!!!
HAPPY V-DAY Minna-san!!!
Valentine's Day in Japan:
"St. Valentine's Day is celebrated on February 14, and White Day one month later on March 14. It is said that St. Valentine's Day was imported to Japan in 1958 by a Japanese confectionery company. In Japan, it is only the women giving presents - mainly chocolate - to men, but not the other way around. Men are supposed to return the favors received on Valentine's Day one month later on White Day, a Japanese creation. White Day is believed to have been introduced by a marshmallow manufacturing company in the 1960s. The white marshmallows gave the day its name but other kinds of presents such as candy, flowers, etc. have become more popular over the years."
