Matchbox 40







Ok, so I finally had to post a picture of our matches. Evidently the Flemish word for matches is none other than Lucifers. I found this to be highly interesting. I do wonder if any one here in Belgium finds this fact interesting as well. I am glad though that we haven't taken up this tradition for our English word of the said product - although the reference is correct. Anyway, back to my chocolate.......

Hey Cherith,

what is the purpose of "Matchbox 40"?

Are you referring to the band "Matchbox 20"?

I must be a little slow today.

There are 40 matches in the box. It looks like a cute play on the band name. :)
