Well, I was planning on having my son take a picture of me reading FAS somewhere at the Con so if I can find some Battenburg in Indianapolis, I will include it in the shot...
I have never had an after dinner mint- I must admit if they taste like toothpaste, what is the point?
Is there a battenberg in the guiness book of records? maybe Jasper should do something like the biggest battenberg ever, could be colourful and inedible!
I like Battenburg (but then I used to drink Pernod and Creme de Menthe together.It tasted like very alcoholic toothpaste, na looked like Swarfega hand cleaner, but not the red one.

I'm kind of tempted to try the recipe and make it. Though I suspect my family wouldn't eat it, and I have no idea if I'd like it either, so it could potentially be wasted.

If none of you eat it, send it over here. I love it. And if that's reason enough for being burned at the stake, then bring on the wood. It's rather chilly here in England anyway, and the fire would dry my feet out nicely.
