Good?! Culture Difference (^-^)

making-cookies.jpg cookies.jpg Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. Japanese Valentine’s Day is girls and women give chocolate (some people also give presents) to their lovers. And just one month later March 14th the boys and the men give something in return. Japanese people call this day “White day” I don’t know why “white” …

Even in Europe each country has slightly different way to Valentine’s Day.

Once I asked Stefan how Swis people spend and celebrate of Valentine’s Day. He told me that normally men give some flowers and good dinner to their lover and there is a no date like a Japanese white day. So for me it’s sounds like women is lucky! No?

But making sweets is one of my hobby so I decided to make something following Japanese style. Wait…Isn’t is bit difficult for give chocolate to Swis people? Because they are gourmets especially chocolate!!

Umm…I was thinking, thinking and thinking. Then I decided to make chocolate cookies what is more it’s American style chocolate chip cookies (-.-)
