Maggie has a wonderful Scottish lilt to her warm and friendly speaking voice.  She asked me questions about the origins of how Gung Haggis Fat Choy started up, how I managed to create haggis won ton, and what I do with Robbie Burns' famous “Address to a Haggis.”

It's all about the food, doncha know….  and the stories behind the people who make it happen! 

“You love to tell the stories, Todd!” exclaimed Maggie, when I 
told her how  I bumped into Iain Drummond in Vancouver, a man who
organizes  the Burns Dinner for the Royal Vancouver Yacht club,
when I was knocking on doors  looking for my lost cell
phone.  When I told him his name sounded familiar and asked if he
had ever attended my Gung Haggis Fat Choy dinner, he stated that he had
always wanted to and invited me in to open up a bottle of 6 Isle blend
of Scotch Whiskey…. very smooth.

Maggie tells me that St. Andrew's Day
is coming up soon on November 30th, and did I have any plans to
celebrate?  Not quite sure what St. Andrew is the patron Saint
of… I assure her that I hadn't made any plans yet, but now that I
know about it, I will be sure to do something for St. Andrew's
Day.  But knowing that St. Cecilia Day was coming up (Nov 21), I told Maggie that I would be playing my accordion for the patron Saint of Music.
