Niko was amused when I told him that this bag of rice shares his name:
It's kind of funny, because to me, "Niko" was always Greek. We named Niko after my hubby's uncle Niko, and his cousin Nicholas - Big Nick and Little Nick. Our Niko is Baby Niko to everyone in the family and boy is his uncle tickled at having another little namesake running around. So I was surprised when I first came across a Japanese restaurant called Niko Niko and now I see it everywhere... lots of sushi restaurants, bags of rice, etc. I've tried googling it to see what the translation is and I seem to come up with 3 different answers: cat, smile, or daylight. I think I like the smile definition the best... Smile Smile!
