Wednesday 25th Jan 2012: Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face…

…Great chieftain o' the pudding-race Aboon them a' yet tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm: Weel are ye wordy o'a grace As lang's my arm.

Yep, we had a great Burns supper. D’s mum and dad joined us for Scotch Broth, haggis (meat for 3 and vegan for me) neeps and tatties and our version(s) of cranachan for dessert.
While a selection of malts was available, D’s mum and I ate the haggis with wine – a good Cote du Rhone village which had the spiciness to handle the haggis. Hmmm. Delicious. And a first in D’s mum and dad coming to us for dinner.
