It is well known that St.Valentine's Day was imported to Japan in 1950s by a Japanese chocolate company in order to increase sales of chocolate. When I first heard of White Day, I thought it was also an imported event. No, it wasn't.
A marshmallow manufacturing company is said to have created White Day to increase sales of marshmallows in 1960s. Perhaps the name White Day comes from the white marshmallows. Ironically, men who receive chocolate on St. Valentine's Day do not seem to return marshmallows. Most men will return not marshmallows but cookies, sweets, candies or flowers. Were there years when men returned marshmallows? I do not know.
Everything went well with a chocolate company. Nothing went well with a marshmallow manufacturing company, leaving only the name of White Day. By the way, gentlemen, what are you going to return to the ladies who gave you chocolate on St. Valentine's Day?
Sorry to say, I have nothing to do with St.Valentine's Day nor White Day this year. You know I could not go out, as I had my left ankle broken on January 26.

==Sorry, Dear Karin-san==
It is very interested and fun for me
of your writing about White-Day,today.
==This sentence is almost broken at all(?)==
when I try for writing English, I find that
I've not that ability(==first fact?==)
(but,I'm already too old to start study it.)
==but I'm a bit younger than when you went to NZ for the Home-stay
By the way,
I have a question of English wording for you
once more again.
(oh,can I have it? Excuse me...)
== SHOU-KORI MO NAKU ? ==
(that is...)
I was reminded the Japanese word "GiRi-CHoKo",
and I think (==BAKA NO KANGAE ...)what is a English
word for this strange Japanese word?
====This sentence is almost broken,too. hi?!==
and
Is there such word in Englnd or Europe and America?
(what a stupid Question I have!?
==That should be a matter in only Japan...!==)
Can I have such question? Excuse me,too...!
though(?)
these broken writing may wake up my dull brain...!
Thank you!
Sory, such stupid questions would trouble for you...
