Scots around the world celebrate the country’s national bard today. Celebrations include a feast of soup (cock-a-leekie – fancy name for chicken and leek), haggis, mashed potatoes, turnips and trifle. Of course most is washed down with Scotland’s national drink – whisky!
For those who take part in The Scotsman’s annual Haggis Hunt, the season ends today (sniff…)
Today, I’m celebrating Robbie Burns Day with Scottish author, Ali Bacon, over at her blog.
It promises to be great fun so drop over and celebrate with us.
