I cooked haggis for lunch
Believe me there is nothing nicer than sliced haggis, fried alongside an egg.
Bloody lovely
I added boiled broccoli to balance out my sugars and drank a couple of jugs of ice cold water.
I also caught up with some friends on line
Bantering conversations about how crap LOTR movies are
Silliness and stimulation , I like to call it.
Food for the schoolboy who still lurks underneath my breastbone
I’m working two nights
And now I’m hungry?
ReplyDeleteAnything LOTR is worth my time.
XOXO
Getting ready for Robbie Burns Day, I see.
ReplyDeleteI'm so old, I had to look up what LOTR means! I read the books, many moons ago, but the films are not my thing. They go on even longer than the books! But if it's your thing, go for it.
ReplyDeleteWhen are you able to give up working nights? They must really bugger up your metabolism. xx
So it sounds like you are feeling better? That's a relief!
ReplyDeleteCeci
Such cute little creatures, haggi. Never filmed before!!!
ReplyDeleteUmmmm ... no, thank you. Shudder! I'll pass on the haggis and have only the egg.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling 100% better now so these two nights won't flatten you.
On Sunday and the week after, I might be missing as a power outage is likely when this huge storm ("Fern") arrives Saturday night. Hope and pray the power stays on!
Hugs!
No thanks on the haggis. Glad you are feeling better, John. I am too.
ReplyDeleteI'll pass on the haggis as well. I wonder how many people see that video and think it's real (in the US for instance)?
ReplyDeleteOn every breakfast buffet in Scotland, the best I had was in a pub in Edinburgh. Well made, it is tasty.
ReplyDeleteI'd pass on the ice cold water...cool yes, but not that cold!
ReplyDeleteThe vegetarian haggis from the best haggis maker in Stornoway is also very tasty 🙂 (and is available in most supermarkets)
My husband told me a haggis has two long legs and two short legs to make it easier to get up the hills in Scotland good haggis is very nice but not a thing here in the part of Toronto where I live. Gigi
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love haggis. And I love those haggis films on YT. Someone is very clever and has created a wonderful little world of the imagination. More of them!
ReplyDeleteI was too frightened to eat haggis and black pudding because I was advised it was full of bad fats…. Maybe on Robbie Burns day I will have a wee sliver for old times sake
ReplyDeleteI’m glad it makes you happy but despite you telling me to believe you... I tried it once and I don’t.
ReplyDeleteLol.
DeleteVocê nem me conhece, você nunca fez uma disciplina junto comigo, você nem estuda mais na UFRJ, você já se formou como farmacêutica, mesmo assim um FDP da coordenação da farmácia vazou as minhas informações pessoais para você.
ReplyDeleteQuer dizer, eu faço a vontade da coordenação da farmácia da UFRJ e tenho as minhas informações pessoais vazadas para quem nem me conhece e nem mora mais no Brasil.
Você mora em Copenhagen que fica na Dinamarca e trabalha na empresa Novonesis, esse FDP não tinha nada que vazar as minhas informações pessoais para você que está morando no exterior. Sim, eu descobri o seu perfil no Instagram e no Linkedin:
https://www.instagram.com/rafa.rafafa/
https://dk.linkedin.com/in/pharmacist-rafaela-carvalho/pt
Eu descubro tudo, assim como eu descobri, que um FDP da coordenação da farmácia da UFRJ vazou as minhas informações pessoais para você, que nem sabe quem eu sou.
Eu acho que o FDP achou que eu não iria descobrir a maldade que ele fez comigo, pode avisar para esse FDP que eu descubro tudo, assim como eu descobri o seu perfil no Instagram e no Linkedin.
Se esse FDP achou que ele iria me calar ao vazar as minhas informações pessoais para você, pode avisar para ele, que nunca vai me calar, medo é para quem tem algo a perder, eu não tenho nada a perder, não sobrou nada para mim.
Pode avisar a esse FDP, que o que ele fez comigo vai ter volta, nada fica impune.
Aposto que esse FDP da coordenação da farmácia faz parte do laboratório de fitoquímica e farmacognosia da faculdade de farmácia (FITOFAR), esse laboratório fica no segundo andar do bloco A do Centro de Ciências da Saúde (CCS), que fica na cidade universitária, que fica dentro da ilha do fundão.
Você fez estágio nesse laboratório, durante o tempo que ainda estudava na UFRJ e ainda morava no Brasil, então esse FDP da coordenação da farmácia ainda deve manter contato com você, então esse FDP deve ter te enviado no privado as minhas informações sigilosas sem a minha autorização.
Se esse FDP morasse aqui na minha rua as coisas seriam bem diferentes, em cima da minha rua tem uma boca de fumo, em frente a minha casa funciona um ferro velho clandestino que fornece material furtado para os traficantes fazerem barricadas. Se esse FDP morasse aqui na minha rua, os traficantes já teriam mandado esse FDP subir até a boca de fumo, os traficantes não gostam de gente que faz as coisas para sacanear os outros, igual esse FDP fez comigo.
Get lost
DeleteI too am a Haggis fan, and I buy 6 packs online of 'Grants' Haggis, just so I always have some on hand in case I don't have any 'fresh'.
ReplyDeleteWeirdly for a Scottish man Alan actually prefers the vegetarian version of haggis, he says the spices are more rounded. I LOVE the TikTok ... who even knew they could get so round!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh John, 'how crap LOTR movies are'?!...IDK, I may have to stop reading your blog. JK! That's kind of a comfort movie here. Cold, sick, down? Snuggle up on the couch with the pup and LOTR. Or 'Happy, Thank You, More Please', CODA, Come From Away, Sound of Music and any number of other comfort, drivel movies I love.
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling much better!
That must have been the English haggis in the clip, quite different to the Scottish haggis. I'm sure both are equally tasty.
ReplyDeleteNever tried haggis although my son-in-law loves it.
