Books, Books, Books

PS - One of those books was The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. And it was an enjoyable read. Went by too quickly, though. Took only a few hours. Shame on me for not reading slower.

In the book, there's a character who has the last name Van Houten. I knew I had heard that before but I was too interested in the story to really think about where I had heard it before. Lucky me, though, since the book pointed it out for me. Van Houten Cocoa is really famous in Japan. All over Japan, it's just everywhere. Powder, can, hot, cold, solid, liquid, if it could have been another form I'm sure it'd be here that way as well. Now I'm not a very seasoned traveller. I've really only been to the states, a few provinces in Canada and Japan. So I can't say what's been going on with it in Australia or the UK or anywhere else in the world, but man. Japan is all about the Van Houten cocoa.
