Black Pudding


I had a great day today back in Edinburgh. We went to the car boot sale this morning which more people go to than go to church. It was crazy! Everyone parks in the fourth level of the car park (a parking garage) and sells goods out of their boot (car truck). After walking through the crowd we went out to breakfast and I had a traditional Scottish breakfast. It includes black pudding, fried egg, potato toast, bacon, beans, and a sausage pattie. For those of you who dont know black pudding is made with blood and animal fat. You would think that it would taste disgusting, but it is now my new favourite breakfast food. The hard part when eating it is that you have to have some of everything when you take a bit and it took me close to half an hour to eat a plate of food.
After we walked to a free comedy show at Stand Up Comedy. I have not laughed that much in a long time. Two Scottish men with multiple accents and acting as women. It was hilarious! After the two hour free show we walked around downtown and ended up buying some jerseys for the rugby game that we are going to in two weeks. I am so excited to see a rugby game. It is Scotland vs. France and they are two very good teams.
