Happy Valentines Day

Valentine's Day in Japan isn't about overpriced roses or dates with your sweetie. 
It isn't about paper cards exchanged or frosted cookies at a school party.

 It's about chocolate. 


In Japan woman are supposed to give chocolate to the men in their life on Valentine's Day. Now, this just doesn't mean to your husband or boyfriend, but to your boss and co-workers at the company or to guys who are friends in your class.  Tim and the boys have brought home an assortment of goodies from church and school, homemade and bought. There is a day in March called "White Day" where  men are supposed to reciprocate and give a chocolatey sweet back...but it just doesn't seem to happen.
