January 29, 2005

A taste of Scotland came to the OC on January 29, 2005. Guests were asked to 'dress Scottish' and were invited to a very participatory evening of food and festivities. Below is the evidence!

Don, reading Robert Burns' Ode to the Haggis (about four pages, all in Scotts!)	The Ode to the Haggis continues...	Finally, the haggis is stabbed! (This year was more difficult as I could not purchase a haggis at the butcher, as I did last year in Scotland. Though I did make it myself, I did leave out some items, such as the windpipe, heart, and other sheep inards...)
Ready to partake of the haggis, neeps, tatties and salad (a California addition!)	Don, displaying the meal	The Typsy Laird of Leeward Lane (and a trifle too!)
