Camping again,this time with some friends. We'll be camping on the Thames river. Well, not ON the river, but beside it hahaha. I hope we have a great time and that the bugs are at a minimum! There is nothing quite like a meal cooked on a campfire in the outdoors with friends and family to share it with :)

In which I eat Haggis
Boil liver and parboil the onion, then mince them together. Lightly brown the oatmeal. Mix all ingredients together. Fill the sheep's pluck with the mixture pressing it down to remove all the air, and sew up securely. Prick the haggis in several places so that it does not burst. Place haggis in boiling water and boil slowly for 4-5 hours. Serves approximately 12.

Memories
I stopped at a yardsale yesterday, and had a complete flood of childhood memories. For sale on a huge table were just about every single Fisher Price Little people set ever made. I wanted to buy them all, but of course space and money prevented me. I did buy a zoo, though. It has all it's pieces and is in very good shape. I remember playing for hours upon hours with my sisters, creating elaborate stories with our men, and being so completely involved in our play that bedtime came right after breakfast, or so it seemed!
I also bought a campervan, which I did not have as a child, but I knew that my nephew Samuel would enjoy playing with it when he comes over to play. My boys are making full use of the zoo, camper, and bucket of men that I bought! The great part is that all the pieces are with the sets!
I am glad that my boys enjoy playing with them as much as I used to :)
