Scottish Food

Before we had our flat, we were a little timid in our tasting Scottish food. We of course tried Fish and chips (fries), but that was about it. We have now tried Scottish Pies, which are really just meat pies. And I even eat lamb burgers. We bought a Scottish Cookbook the other day and have tried a fish recipe out of it and then I made scones. I was kinda nervous about it because I love scones, but they turned out to be delicious!

The other night we even tried Haggis. We were told to try it by many people, but not from the little grease pits you find on every corner, but at a nicer restaurant. Well, we looked around and found a nice (and reasonably priced) restaurant, Wetherspoon, that had haggis. So, Mike ordered that and I tried it. It wasn't all that bad even and I would eat it again. Although I still cannot think what is in it. Apparently there is a more modern way of preparing it that doesn't include all the ingredients that traditional haggis contains and this is what I like to think was in the haggis that we tried. But you all should be proud of me! I am eating lamb, beef, haggis and even smoked sausage we bought in the French Market. I think I have lost my mind.
