Valentine's Day Special

This year Valentine's Day was like no other!!!

On the one hand, it was my first Valentine's day after marriage and as such the day was special enough with both of us trying to do little things and trying not to go overboard…
Me and my Roses... :)

 On the other hand, it was my first "Official" Valentines Day Celebration.

At Kancor, this year, we celebrated Valentine's Day in a small manner. I am unsure if in India generally such celebrations are seen. But it was a good experience with a lot of feel good and smiles across everyone's faces.

The anticipation was sparked off a day earlier with a mailer that talked about Valentine's Day providing the opportunity to celebrate and express appreciation in the workplace. This with a joinder to celebrate the day with a splash of "Red, Pink and White" ensured that the day was in hues of these shades.

We had heart shaped balloons and bowls filled with heart shaped candy to welcome as soon as one stepped inside the office. The day started of with something sweet as people moved to and fro and picked up candy from the bowl.

To accompany this, we went around giving each employee a red rose and wishing them on Valentine's Day. It was a pleasure to see the smiles on everyone's faces as they received these flowers.

To top up this good feeling was a gift from a few guests. We had a few auditors down at our office and as they saw the smiles and the good cheer, they went out of their way to contribute to the candy bowl with packets and packets of Gems.
Colourful Gems!!!


It was a sweet day with flowers and candy and smiles on many faces. Waiting to see how the next Valentine's day pans out!!!
