How I did it
How to try Haggis
It took me
1 day
It made me

How I did it: Burns night (January 25)The Abbey PubSouth Clerk St.Edinburgh Scotland2008My mates and I were studying abroad at the Uni of Edinburgh and, being dorks, we sought a true celebration of Robert Burns' life and poetry. With his "Address to a Haggis" in mind, we started off with a meal of that "great chieftain o' the puddin-race," along with 'neeps (mashed turnips), and tatties (mashed potatoes) at the Abbey Pub.

The Fried Chicken Incident 6 months ago

Tried to make it, more or less from scratch. Rather a failed attempt, as, although the breading tasted good, it browned (blackened?) long before the chicken was fully cooked.

I made it up to my poor dad and sister in the form of chocolate cake, which always fixes things…and which even I cannot ruin!

I almost hit an entire flock of turkeys, while driving to the dentist. 6 months ago

The consolation would have been that I’d be stocked for the next seven years of Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners.

Blast…that might have been nice.

I'm reviving this goal 6 months ago

I certainly never gave it up, but as Idrydenb commented, ‘You don’t come by mischief; you make it.”

I hereby resolve to imbue my life with mischief.
