White Day

Valentine's Day in Japan is a little different than back home in Canada. On February 14th, women give presents to the important men in their lives (including friends). Then, a month later, on March 14th, the men reciprocate with equal or better gifts.
Anyways, this year on White Day, one of the kids at one of the schools I teach at brought a bag of these things from the picture to give to all the other kids, and I was also given one. I have no idea what the name is supposed to mean, but they are green tea-flavoured biscuits. Although I had very low expectations, due to the name, they were actually pretty good.
