Forgot to get a haggis at the weekend shop. I'll make up for it next week  Still, I'll get part way there - Talisker Skye opened last night, and there is plenty left!

Dog is looking glum this evening - haggis was of the vegetarian variety this year. Improved with the obligatory dose of Dalwhinnie though!

Yes the haggis is in the oven Neeps and tatties prepped and on the stove I’m going for a whisky sauce with Jura this year and I’m going with a slight variant on the tatties with some spring onions mashed in Good effort Stewart  Although the French find the whole concept of "La panse de brebis farcie" (what they call Haggis) hilarious, I have yet to find a frenchman who has tried it, not enjoy it. I have been known to make my own haggis, using my old Granny's recipe. I'm all in favour of a good whisky sauce to accompany it. When we lived down in rural SW France, my elderly neighbour (a local farmer) called by as I was working in my kitchen garden. After studying what I had planted, he enquired if I was getting a pig. I told him I wasn't, so he asked why on earth I had planted swedes, parsnips & jerusalem artichokes. When I told him we like to eat them he couldn't believe it, saying that they only grow that stuff for pigs; "we only eat that stuff ourselves here when the Germans have invaded"

No, they do tend to enjoy it. Maybe I worded it badly
