Day of The Bard
Mungo was disappointed to find that Gracia’s carnicería was sold out of Haggis…
.
…so he took his pipes for a consoling walk in the nearby hills…
.
.
…and played himself a rousing tune…
.
.
…until the skirl echoed off the hills and burns.
.
.
He returned home to find Gracia had stirred up some celebratory porridge with a spurtle…
…Happy Robbie Burn’s Day to one and all!
.

Having looked up the recipe for Haggis I am not sure whey Mungo would be disappointed at its absence! I hope the porridge was a good end to his day of piping and walking. Was it served with brown sugar and cream? Love seeing Mungo with his pipes and kilt.
Mungo is a true Scot, and playing an ode to the Haggis on Robbie Burns Day would have warmed the cockles of his heart; though porridge with treacle is a close second!
Mungo looks so happy now. How kind of the Hittys at home to bring some celebration to him. I had haggis once (from a can)….IMO, I think the porridge would riotously win out.
Canned Haggis may not be a true comparison with the real thing, Mungo assures you! He also says that a fine amber-coloured liquid would help if you need to make it more palatable!
oh, what a bonnie lad. Love the tam o shanter.
