Pizza and beer had a beautiful relationship for years.
Until pinot showed up. Now pizza and pinot are the power couple.
Nurturing the not-so-healthy relationship is Katikati's Ruth Watson, who is having a Pink Ribbon pizza-and-pinot lunch to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation.
She's held several Pink Ribbonevents previously.
''I've made pancakes by the hundreds,'' she says. She's found a nifty way to keep pancakes fresh ... in the crockpot with a wet tea towel.
Ruth says organising a Pink Ribbon event is easy. It can be a friends-and-family-only event — a great reason to catch up — which is what she does.
''And you don't have to raise thousands, every little bit helps.''
Once registered, hosts receive napkins, bunting, aprons and ideas and recipes. Anything goes — it can be a breakfast, lunch or dinner, quiz night, raffle or walk, and events can be held any time.
