At the moment Stef we are in Buenos Aires  but will be moving on in a day or two.  We may not get  to Europe for a while and recipes will be posted. I know not where. When Hally  does he thing we will be on our way but no hurry and no pressure.

My ipad is running out of  batts so must log out . So keep an eye on this thread from time to time  because you might find us in your kitchen playing with your doggies.

The Scottish location would have to be the Isle of Lewis - the main town is Stornoway, although my parents came from a couple of small villages about 10 ks away, Gress and Flesherin.  St Kilda is now a military base, I believe, all the locals were moved off a great many years ago - perhaps the soldiers there would enjoy a visit from you Gert ;D

Unfortunately, unlike Stef's recipe, I don't think haggis (or sheeps head soup) are convertible to TMX - will have to do more research.

Ok it will take some travelling but  The Isle of Lewis is  in .  Funny I was  researching Stornoway a few weeks ago.

Hi Gert,
This thread sounds a lot of fun. Count me in when you get to the letter G for a Greek recipe :)

Sure enough .  When ther is more than one person wanting to post a recipe for a place I will wait until all are posted before moving on to the next place. At this stage we are still loving Buenos Aires but the late nights are a killer. LOL!

I have a week off work so wherever you're off to next I'm coming!

I'll have time to make a dish for sure.

This sounds like fun. As we get to each country I will have to see if I can find a dish to make from there too.

Shall I start a thread saying 'Dishes from around the World in ?? days' ?
Or how shall we word it?

Sure sounds good. This trip may take a few years . I hope we son't spend the whole weekend in Buenos  Aires or I will be a wreck. They stay up so late here. Still it is giving me time to pack all the stuff I will need . Katiej you will definitely need some winter woolies. It is gunna be cold.

Shall we have the recipes in Chit Chat and then we can copy them into the appropriate place or better still put a link to them?
