@VisitScotland Poldino’s in Aberdeen! My dad still raves about their soup after having gone three times to eat it over the course of a short 2-week visit!

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

@Gavlebocken gives updates on the goat. I highly recommend!

@RedWebPod listening to your Krampus episode made me want to hear of your reactions to Mari Lwyd (MAR-ee LEW-id)…
Other awesome Christmas entities include the Yule Lads and the Gävle Goat.

Lol so @British_Airways just wants us all to like, strap onto the wings or something ? Four of the five of us have had no seat assigned, and mine has changed twice. Are we cursed?

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

The @British_Airways saga continues- my sister and her husband were put on ‘standby’ for no reason?? For tickets booked months ago??? For literal thousands of dollars????

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Fingers crossed my parents ticket didn’t get messed up too. Good thing we arrived HOURS early I guess, but now that cushion is dwindling.

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

@braegrosz Worst nightmares coming true today. Not the best impression for at least two people who haven’t flown internationally before.

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Sad about it because I’ve had amazing experiences with them but a cancellation and no indication that I would only be allowed to change my return once? And no chance of booking me and my parents together without a $2000 charge? Worst.

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Normally I love and swear by flying with @British_Airways but my trip with them has been a booking disaster and now I will be split from my group and spending a day alone in an unfamiliar city… not liking that.

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Please share so that @British_Airways sees they’re going to strand a young woman alone with no travel options in Chicago overnight waiting for her parents who will be on a flight 24h later.

@braegrosz Oooh see yes, cran? Fab. Choc? Gimme! Pretty much literally anything else? As long as it is NOT RAISIN

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Mom: oatmeal raisin cookies? That’s like… cookie blasphemy!

My dad, from a dead sleep: amen!

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Redwall made me want to drink cordial, which I had never heard of and still am unsure about.

girls only want one thing and it's a feast at Redwall Abbey

Rediscovering the joy of Froot Loops... it’s the little things that keep us attuned to our humanity.

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

First summer in US (not Scotland) in... a while... I can tell that it’s going to be brutal; I never much liked the hot anyway but after the very mild ?? Worst

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

@amy_walkerx Where are we headed?

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

100% and I want in so bad

[seema rao @artlust]

Are museums cults?

[R. Jo @SassAndCookies]

Thinking about the time my parents got me a stuffed animal for Christmas they thought I’d like and it turned out to be a squeaky toy
