White Day chocolates

Japan has created a day to complement Valentine's Day a month later. March 14 is called White Day. Unlike other countries where couples or the man gives a gift expressing his love, Japanese Valentine's Day developed as a day on which girls/women give chocolates to loved ones, friends, male coworkers. On White Day the men return the favor with chocolates, cookies, or some present. Blue (and white) is sort of the color for White Day.
