    We just had a fabulous Burns' Supper. Haggis, neeps and tatties, followed by cranachan. To the sounds of ceilidh music, too!

    What my English friends call a swede, I call a turnip - and that's what I mashed up tonight.

    Turnip is smaller and has a more sharper kind of taste. Swede is nicer and has a better flavour, I think anyway. Nice with butter and some carrot put through. We had a Burns supper tonight too. Loads left too. Kids liked it too. :-)

    I know, but the Lidl up here today was closed on Burns' night for a refurb so I couldn't get any. :-( Managed to get some at my local butchers and it was very good too. Not quite 44p a haggis, but I did manage 5% off. :-)
