Burns Night Supper
With the Supper coming up the 25th, you may ask yourself "Where do I find a Haggis here in America?". And the answer is: http://store.stewartsofkearny.com/home.php. Or: http://www.caledoniankitchen.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/33_29?osCsid=578d71eb0bcf8d1a14f5a6f30d550b02. Better order now.
And remember - Haggis is made from the parts of our sheep that the English DIDN'T steal.
