     Thanks for reaching out! This is what shows up on my screen. I wonder if your system font is registering the hiragana "ri" not stylized, and therefore making it look like the katakana "ri".

    Happy Ekiben Day, 4-10🚄🍱 Ekiben (駅弁) is a type of bento sold at bullet train stations. They're usually fancy and sometimes made with local specialties as ingredients. The date comes from the fact that 弁 looks like a combination of 十 (ten) and the Arabic numeral 4.

    Happy Biscuit Day! "Biscuit" comes from the phrase "bis coctus" which means "baked twice" in Latin. In Japanese "baked twice" is "nidoyaku," which brings us to today's date: 2 = ni 8 = ya(ttsu) S-s-so... 2/28 is ビスケットの日. Like some wet dough, that was quite the stretch.

    Happy E-mail Day 💌 1 = i(chi) = E 2 = fu(tatsu) 3 = mi(ttsu) “fumi” is 文, an archaic word for “letter” in Japanese. So, E-fumi = E-mail (though, nobody actually says that)!
