    Taste of Scotland festival

    The 14th annual Taste of Scotland festival in Franklin, NC (home of the STM) is coming up in a couple of weeks.

    The Mrs. and I plan to be there on Saturday. Who else is making the trip?

    I will be there. There is always a food tent there run by a Scottish couple, who have the best sausage rolls I have tasted outside of the UK.

    And HP sauce!!!!

    This weekend is the time. Everyone make sure to wear your dandelions or XMTS cap badges so we'll recognize each other.
