s. valentine

Today is S. Valentine, really we do not celebrate it but it is true every occasion is good to eat a cake so as this morning we were at our preferred coffee shop for breakfast and we saw one, we did not care about the heart shape but we bought because it didn't have special phrases on it but it was covered by strawberries and Momochan loves strawberries ;) After breakfast I went home and Sampei to work. During afternoon I went kindergarden to take Momochan and as snack at home I gave her a slice of cake, granny too cameto stay withh her niece and she also had a slice of cake, Momo said it was really delicious, this child is really becoming a sweet teeth HAHAHA

san valentine

girichokotte nan desuka ? (what does giri choko means ?) with that phrase Sampei and I always joke on S.Valentine day exchanging choko treats since we went Japan ^O^
Valentine's Day おめでとう !
Differently from Italy in Japan this day is not only for lovers.
Girichoko義理チョコ is more like showing gratitude, and giving chocolate to boss, coworkers and friends are very popular thing. Giving chocolate to someone you like to say `thank you' is Japanese Valentine's Day. It seems exchanging chocolate or small gift on the day between friends or families are getting popular.
Valentine's Day does not have a long history in Japan and people said this has been planned by chocolate companies but it seems people are enjoying and using the day to show their gratitude to the people they feel grateful.
Actually one third of sales of chocolate companies are made on Valentine's Day each year.

a funny day ;)


Today wee have gone McDonalds for lunch, Momochan likes to eat nuggets andshe can also eat fruit, as soon as the season changes and summer arrives, inside the store she can have ananas, apple or kiwi togatherr with her nugget and fries so even if she has fries eating fresh fruit balances a little. After lunch, as it is a sunny day, wee didn't want to go home so wee thought to take Momochan to a near garden center, she loves flowers and animals and inside the store sells fishes, birds, mices, other strange animals and in the garden, afyet plants, trees and flowers there is a space with deers and sheeps ;)
The earth is humid as has recently fallen rain and deers can stay quiet.
The garden center has also some free birds like peacoks jumping inside the area where clients can sit and have a coffee or rest a while, the owner's house is attached to the store so the peacoks jump freely here and there ;)

Innside kindergarden kids have decorated the ceiling with coloured paper stripes and when I go to take Momo home in the afternoon I bring a confettis bag so that she will throw around laughing and jumping ;)
