@rmattila74 @jwisser “But that's just a joke to tease tourists.” That’s what they want you to believe in order to discourage #Haggis hunting by outsiders.
Haggii lovers of the world come together. The world haggis championship in Perth.

I posted this over on my personal Scottish account and noticed a statistically significant proportion of #PHP developers liked it. Are we used to mash ups? Reposting link in case there are other hungry devs of Scottish ancestry out there.
Happy Burns Night!
Our supper was a quick nod to the bard - haggis and vermouth pasta on a whisky-cream sauce.
Recipe is the filling from the Rob Roy Macaroni O pie I made last January: https://cellarcrumbs.wordpress.com/2024-pies/rob-roy-macaroni-o-pie/
Address to a Haggis - A famous Scottish poem by Robert Burns
Probably better have a glass of milk to line your stomach then
#BurnsNight #haggis #whisky
As someone who (almost) doesn't drink, not for any religious or health reasons, but simply because I fell out of the habit, it means I still have various half-consumed bottles of booze at home.
Anyway I have put a haggis on to cook but didn't realise how long the little beastie takes. Which means I've started on this golden syrup already. God knows what state I'll be in when it comes to mashing those neeps and tatties!
It's probably impossible to make a plate of haggis, neeps, and tatties look attractive and appetising, too much beige .
My attempts at quenelles for the tatties were pathetic and took so long that I abandoned the idea, everything was in danger of being stone cold. So the haggis was dumped on the plate, and the sauce on top. This was the best-looking of the lot. However, it was quite delicious.
Now down to some serious sipping, sharing and enjoying the company of friends
A Bottle and a Friend
Here's a bottle and an honest friend!
What wad ye wish for mair, man?
Wha kens, before his life may end,
What his share may be o' care, man?
Then catch the moments as they fly,
And use them as ye ought, man:
Believe me, happiness is shy,
And comes not aye when sought, man.
For those marking Burns Night this evening, here's a little rendition of the famous Ode I recorded last year.
Burns Night is celebrated here at Folklore, Food & Fairytales. Important first step, catch your haggis: #haggis #RobertBurns
It's Robbie Burns Day! And this week's CBCKW Food column is about Robbie Burns and the great chieftain o' the Puddin-race: Haggis! And yes! tried my first haggis and I liked it!

Happy Burns Day everyone Remembering nice memory of having some haggis benny at Coffee Saints (2a Little King Street, Edinburgh) during my last trip
"Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie face,
Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race!
Aboon them a’ ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy of a grace
As lang ‘s my arm..."
(from Address to a Haggis by Robert Burns)

Happy Burns Night to all that celebrate.
#BurnsNight #haggis
Hitlist nailed!
1) These are no ordinary samosas, these are offal somosas #Haggis (don’t know why M&S didn’t run with that)
2) Bagged #ThinLizzy acoustic sessions
3) Got a bottle of moon-howler juice back to base and under the radar #Vino
4) Bonus mini-pies for lunch
Have a fine Burn´s Supper Day!
To all the friends on those stormy coasts!
"Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face, Great chieftain o the puddin'-race! ..."
(Robert Burns, Adress to a Haggis, first lines)
A decent recipe for anyone else who can’t get hold of a #vegan #haggis from their local supermarket this year: #BurnsNight
