Chocolate time: Name Day Treat

It was H's name day yesterday and so she got one of her last Easter gifts as a treat to eat.

A name day is a tradition in many countries and is a celebration of the year associated with one's given name. The custom originated with the Greek Orthodox calendar of saints where believers, named after a particular saint, would celebrate that saint's feast day.

The concept of name days is similar to the more common birthday, except that the association of a name to a day is entirely arbitrary.
