I'll bet they don't SERVE bannocks (I'll bet they serve the same generic food from a truck as every other games venue), but I'll be using your bannocks recipe to bring our own!megasselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12338390384581143066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-28287088354018790242010-05-16T17:33:06.954-04:002010-05-16T17:33:06.954-04:00PS - ERIN - I used to Irish dance when I was a kid...PS - ERIN - I used to Irish dance when I was a kid!

Here's the best - in July we're going to the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games (NC), where we'll be camping at McRae Meadows on the side of Grandfather Mountain (which in my head will totally be Fraser's Ridge) with hundreds of people drinking ale and whisky and eating bannocks and parritch. Well, I probably can't get Himself to eat parritch, but maybe bannocks.megasselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12338390384581143066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-40683054996264072272010-05-15T23:31:53.886-04:002010-05-15T23:31:53.886-04:00Maybe you could make the Celtic Fling & Highla...Maybe you could make the Celtic Fling & Highland Games at the PA Renaiscance Fair in June. It may be a bit of a hike for you. My daughter will be dancing in the Irish dance competition. It's a fun time with good entertainment.<br /><br />Then there's the Scottish-Irish Festival in September at Green Lane Park in Montgomery County, PA about 45 minutes or so north of Philly. I'd post links if I knew how, but it's all easy to google.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17303207024029820196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-60151531020150501032010-05-15T18:48:11.580-04:002010-05-15T18:48:11.580-04:00This actually happened today, as in, just ended 47...This actually happened today, as in, just ended 47 minutes ago, while I was at the 1st Annual Gaithersburg Book Festival.
