Finding this involving having to find an unsignposted track at a random point on a hiking trail that you only know to look for from a random article on the Australian Hiker website. I'm not sure if that's terrible design or genius.

“It is not a romantic Tale that the Reader is here presented with, but a real History. Not the Adventures of a Robinson Crusoe, a Colonel Jack, or a Moll Flanders, but the Actions of the HIGHLAND ROGUE…”
Rob Roy MacGregor was baptised #OnThisDay, 7 March, 1671. Walter Scott’s novel made the #Scottish #outlaw internationally famous – & created the model for today’s roguish antiheroes

January's cocktail pie - Rob Roy Macaroni O
With Burns Night just around the corner, I've been feeling a whisky cocktail - the Rob Roy.
I combined Burns Supper elements with the most Scottish food of all: a macaroni pie.
Hot water crust, haggis and vermouth macaroni, whisky cream sauce.
Recipe: https://cellarcrumbs.wordpress.com/2024-pies/rob-roy-macaroni-o-pie/

The NYT has a piece on the #RobRoy #Cocktail today, one of my personal faves. Eric Kim mentions that the drink was invented at the Waldorf=Astoria, which is true, though not the one you're probably thinking about.
I wrote a little piece on the drink a few years ago, with some meandering through other topics, like Walter Scott and Beethoven. Eventually, I got around to the drink.
If you ever wondered about the "equals sign" in Waldorf=Astoria, I get to that too.

@scotlit @litstudies this is so good to see. How good that the Blavatnik Honresfield Library has been preserved.

See a piece of history this spring when Sir Walter Scott’s original manuscript for Rob Roy goes on display in Scotland for the first time at National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh. The NLS is streaming a special event on YouTube in March to celebrate the exhibition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVrACp87Fbo

The manuscript for Sir Walter Scott's Rob Roy to go on show at the National Library of Scotland, #Edinburgh https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-64153863
NLS has good record on displaying some of our remarkable literary history to the people of #Scotland Recall standing in line to see their one-day showing of letters by Mary Queen of Scots. There's something about seeing the handwritten work that connects you to the person.
