Happiness for under £4? I think I will.

Alt text; the words “money can’t buy you happiness but it can buy a Scottish morning roll” appear line by line over a close up of a crispy Scottish morning roll with bacon.

There are probably less than 20 people in the nation that know what this is about.

It was a generally gutting few weeks of life compounded by some off the wall comments about a project that’s important to me. Being a historian opens your work to criticism, but I’m literally one human person with ideas and textbooks. taken in Paisley, Renfrewshire by @tenementkitchen

Meeting Peter @tenementkitchen in the gorgeous Cookbook shop was such a joy - not just to hear all about the history of the Scottish morning roll. We managed to cover arts, culture, community and Scotland’s place on the international stage. To hear the history part, listen to episode 5 now wherever you get your podcasts! taken in Edinburgh, Scotland by @tenementkitchen

Bacon, slice and everything nice. These were the ingredients chosen to make the world’s best breakfast roll.

@bbc we are accepting offers for a Scottish roll travel show.

A delightful evening with Kate from @flavour.ie, chatting all things Blood, Guts and Black Pudding. Her book is out now - fantastic present for the carnivore/food craft enthusiast/ Irish history fan in your life!

We did get a little silly. No @charliebarleys1947, No Party.

I had the absolute delight of sitting down with @rovinghaggis to chat all about her new book, Scran. Naturally, we had a lot of morning roll chat.

Big thanks to the team at @waterstonesglasgow for being fantastic hosts!

Glasgow, you did me proud! Biggest turn out yet, 188 lovely faces smiling back at me. Thanks Waterstones for having me and to the wonderful @tenementkitchen for hosting our chat.

As ever, you guys were wonderful and after a huge signing queue I enjoyed a couple well earned martinis!

This is Scooby. He’s the best. He’s also slow, has an enflamed liver, a weak back leg and zero bladder control. I love him.

Dundee! Do you love a morning roll?

Scotland has had the morning roll for at least 300 years longer than Paris has had the baguette, so why don’t we celebrate our rolls for the gastronomic hero that they are? Join Scottish Food Historian, Peter Gilchrist @tenementkitchen , for a journey through the history of our morning rolls, from the 16th century reidy baps to the 21st century grease-stained paper bag. Once we understand that the act of placing a morning roll order, is as important as clans, tartans and ceilidhs, we can begin to celebrate our food history in a meaningful way.
