Mother's day
I had a lovely mother's day, and I hope you had a good day too, and much sympathy for those of you who find it hard.
We had a bit of a rough start and got to church late, but then we went out to lunch, at Pizza Express where i rarely get to go but where the salad is the nicest of all the pizzerias so i had bruschetta con funghi, pizza with a hole in, and tiny spiced figs, which are all my favourite things from the recipe, and we talked and talked. And then we came home and i was given presents, Survival: Escape from Atlantis, which is a sort of rerelease of Atlantis but better balanced, you have to get your meeples to safety, while an island collapses and sea creatures try to eat you.
Benedict gave me the first Kate Bishop (Hawkeye) book and some sugar mice, which is both awesome and a perfect pairing.
Now I'm having a cuddle with Andreas.
So that's got me thinking - what superheroes pair with what confectionary? I'm thinking nut brittle for squirrel girl, Werther's Original for Captain America (because it's old guy candy) and salmiakki (adult, dark and quirky) for Watchmen. What do you think?
