35. "Kurisumasu" in Japan is an entirely different thing...
|
Last edited Mon Nov 19, 2012, 02:56 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1) While only less then 1% of the population is Christian, the rest are Shinto~Buddhist, and still Celebrate Kurisumasu as a romantic holiday much like we do Valentines day. Gifts are exchanged, dinners are served to loved ones.. for some reason the Japanese adopted Colonel Saunders image as a Japanese Santa Claus. I suspect that KFC pushed for this with the holiday packages.
The best part about "kurisumasu" is the cake!! 
The holiday itself is really minor compared to the big holiday which is New Years. Many people still work on Kurisumasu, but its like here in that people buy trees, and decorate and buy gifts. 
In Japanese they say: Meri Kurisumasu to Yoi Otoshi yo! (Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!) |

And at the checkout I was telling my husband I was not ready to be in the holiday spirit. The nice checker who came over to bag our groceries (my husband had started to and she had no customers) asked me what I had against holidays. I told her because I was ready to WIN the war on Christmas. She totally cracked up and we all had a good laugh.
