Hmm. They've got thick accents, but I found it reasonably easy to parse? That said, I have no idea how easy it is or isn't to people who haven't been hanging around with Scots and reading Robert Burns poems since they were tiny.

I adore the Tiffany Aching series, though, so I'd say it's well worth it if you can deal with the Feegle dialect.

Ooh, cake pops. :D I've wanted to make them for awhile, before it gets too warm outside, but I doubt I have room to keep them in the freezer before dipping them in chocolate. They look like adorable treats! (Also, apparently they sell different colored chocolates at Hobby Lobby. I DIDN'T KNOW THIS UNTIL I LOOKED AT A LINK WITHIN THE LINK YOU PROVIDED. So awesome.)

My account's going to expire soon, too. I don't have the spending money to renew it, so I'll just have tot live with fifteen icons.
