    I've got the quaich (inherited) and plenty of scotch. This year, it will be a can of haggis at home, and maybe some poetry reading to my wife.

    Burns night? Yes, but at home I would assume.

    Our lodge's Burns night is going virtual also. I have a quaich and good whisky but I may opt for that tinned haggis, if I can't find any at World Market.

    I proposed to my spouse on a Burns Night. I will find a real haggis for her (she is a fan) lockdown or no, though. I wonder if our local Scottish baker is officially an "essential service"? No canned haggis is allowed in her presence.
    Those ancient U Nialls from Donegal were a randy bunch.

    Congratulations on your fine lady. If no canned haggis, I guess you're down to this alternative:

    We can get the real thing in these here parts and we even have a choice of makers!

    Haggis-in-a-can ... sounds too much like field rations.

    My wife has approved me making a ground lamb version. She is not a fan of offal like I am. I did find an online recipe with lamb and chicken livers. If there are left over chicken livers, my dog and I can share them for lunch. Boy do dogs love chicken livers!
