Anyway, I'm an American living in the UK, and it's been extremely difficult to find Valentine's Day stuff here--most of what I have seen is for adults. So I do miss that about the US. As for lollipops, I grew up (in the Midwest US) saying lollipops too, but I also knew people who called them suckers. After 6 years, I've gotten used to ice lollies. : )Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06862163059927293977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543941664703892689.post-26044539043087261582011-02-13T15:35:06.418-08:002011-02-13T15:35:06.418-08:00Here in New Zealand Valentine's Day isn't ...Here in New Zealand Valentine's Day isn't big at all...and if you do participate it's cards/gifts between adults...not kids.<br />We call ice lollies popsicles or iceblocks and call lollipops lollipops.

THEN, March 14th the boys are supposed to return the gifts but with marshmallows! Now, I do love a good marshmallow or two but I would much rather have a box of fancy chocs - who wouldn't? and although I have hinted at this every year that I have know DH (13 years in all) I still get a bag of marshamallows! aghhh<br /><br />I am a Brit living abroad too so often come across the odd differences in language, an Aussie frind said she was bring a bag of lolly's to the park with her and when she got there it was a bag of sweeties, non of them on a stick!jojoebi-designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17585345777385016260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543941664703892689.post-21623580473490216082011-02-13T13:31:17.966-08:002011-02-13T13:31:17.966-08:00oh those cards are amazing!!
