Pinch Pinch Pinch, OUCH!

Today is St. Patrick's Day!  St. Patrick's Day is a celebration of the patron saint, St. Patrick, of Ireland.  Traditionally, people celebrate by wearing green on St. Patrick's Day.  Our Japanese Erasers family at Hapa Culture are no exception!

Our Parka Bears Erasers usually wear many different colors.  However, they are all wearing green eraser parkas today in celebration of St. Patrick's Day!!  Do you see the odd Parka Bears Eraser who is wearing a yellow eraser parka!?!?!  Guess who didn't get the memo!? And, guess who's getting pinched!! LOLOLOL hahahaha!! :D

Are you wearing green today???  If you forgot to wear green, watch out for being pinched!! OUCH!!!! LOLOL >:P

Love, and Happy St. Patrick's Day!
