...that I had forgotten, but remembered when starting A Wind in the Door (the sequel) with my son tonight.
I don't know if it shows how long ago the book was written, or how just how very different the Murry family is - but they eat liverwurst and cream cheese sandwiches.
Liverwurst and cream cheese sandwiches? That's almost as scary as the Black Thing.
One of my absolute favorite sandwiches as a kid was what we called "liversausage," aka Braunschweiger, which is defined as a type of liverwurst. It was so yummy with mustard, but cream cheese sounds good too! Darn - I haven't had it in ages, and now I have a craving!
