Haggis, yummy

Hi blog-reader!

I try to do some school work, but I can’t. I’M STARVING! I can smell the taste of my favourite food, a traditional Scottish meal, Haggis with mashed potatoes and root vegetables, it’s so good food!!

My mother doesn’t make it very often because you know, you can’t just cook it and serve it. You have to boil it for around 5 hours. But today mother had a day off so she thought cook haggis was a good occupy. I’m glad she thought so, because nothing tastes as good as a well cooked piece of haggis and some mashed-potatoes, yummy! To all your readers from countries abroad Scotland and to you Linnea and Linda; Haggis is a mixture of guts like liver, heart, stomach, lungs, tallow from the kidneys, oats, different kind of spices and onion. It might sound a bit disgusting, but it NOT disgusting, it the best most tasteful and wonderful food in the world, I think so anyway. And the fact is that every country has a special dish. Sweden hasn’t only got the wonderful meatballs, they also eats rotten raw, fish, they call it “Surströming” or in English, “Fermented Baltic Herring” and it smells like rotten shit or worse. I couldn’t try it when I was in Sweden, it smelled so badly. If you reader will visit Scotland, I recommend you to try Haggis even though it sounds strange, because if you don’t dare to try it when you’re here, you will never do it, and you will regret it. If you want to consider yourself a real Schott, put on a kilt and listen to some bagpipe music… Sometimes when my father feels very patriotic, like when Scotland successes with something, some sport or anything, he always put his kilt on and start to listen to some bagpipe. You can really se how proud he is!

Mother just called for me, time for food!
See you later guys!
