Happy Mother's Day! [Mingle]
Date: 31st of March
Characters: OPEN
It is Mother's Day, the temperatures are summery (the forecast promises a high of 19 degree), the sun is shining almost relentlessly, birds are singing, a mild sea breeze blows...
And all across the echo boundary, people are waking up on this beautiful Sunday. Probably an hour later than normal, unless they have to go to work, since daylight savings happened. Ew. They open their eyes, and it smells of flowers and tea and baked beans...
And something sits over their lap. Or butt, or hip, if they aren't back sleepers.
This something turns out to be a tray on which sit:
Don't sit up too quickly in shock, the tea is really quite hot.
Now, whom does this happen to?
Well. Literally everyone who is more or less human. And yes, that includes three day old babies, eighty year old men, teenage boys, people in hospitals... everyone, really. And among the scents of flowers, food and beauty products, those with the right abilities will be able to scent someone familiar.

This something turns out to be a tray on which sit:
- a hot cup of tea, a bowl of baked beans, a single slice of white toast and one burnt fried egg
- an empty card
- some cheap chocolate
- a bouquet of flowers complete with a balloon reading Happy Mother's Day
- either one of those three gift sets OR a shitty parfume.

one thing that's fun with SoE - i'm always finding things to do a quick search for, like bean recipe
[British baked beans are different than American baked beans, thank goodness. But it'll still take some cleaning to get that bedding back in order.]
I've been reading up on differences between American and British baked beans
[Jimmy privately thinks that that sounded much more interesting. Most baked beans at home were too sweet for his taste. ]
It's such a big difference, I'm baffled by it
[He's tried, and the tastes just don't go together.]
If... If you're missing the other sort, I'm sure you can find a can in a store somewhere, in one of the American sections.
[Assuming it's not all sweets and chips.]
Re: It's such a big difference, I'm baffled by it
No thanks. I never liked the beans we have at home. And they usually just get served at barbecues and potlucks. Never for breakfast.

Is that right... It sounds like you should try some proper beans. Maybe these will be more to your taste.
[He had to.]

[It didn't sound very appetizing to Jimmy, but he was in England to try new experiences. ]

I thought you seemed familiar... It was you back on Christmas, wasn't it? You keep sounding so skeptical about new experiences.
