11/11

Posted by Mark at Tuesday, November 11, 2008

Today is Pepero Day. For those of you in Japan, you may know today as Pocky Day. 11/11 looks like four sticks of Pepero lined up.

Pepero, or Pocky, are long thin cookie sticks dipped in chocolate.

Today is the day that boys, girls, and couples exchange Pepero sticks.

What does that mean?

Today is a day that I have to try to teach kids hopped up on 20 boxes on Pepero.

Not easy.

I did, however, get a few boxes of Pepero today!

    Haha, I was thinking about Pcoky day this morning and wished that I had some here. I thought about making post about it, but I'd thought no one would care.
    You're amazing, in my opinion, for making this post.

    Hahaha I remember those things. They were really good with peanut butter. Man I miss China. Wish I could come back. It was so fun. I hope you keep doing your thing over there.
