Elston! - the Yorkshire puds - I guess individual yorkshires baked in muffin tins are a bit like popovers, but yorkshires should be a bit messier and more gooey in the middle, which I prefer, for soaking up the gravy goodness! Popovers are the sanitised version of a yorkie pud - they're really just a crispy shell, yorkshires are more substantial... they were designed to fill you up!
I think I use about 1 egg per 2 tbs of flour, so probably 3 eggs per half pint of liquid (I use milk and water). Don't add salt until after mixing the milk/water in (salt makes raw eggs go grey).
My top tip for putting oil in the 12 holes of a muffin tin... fill the three hloes on the short side, then tip the tray at an angle to allow the oil to run across the tray, streaming into next row of holes, and so on... easy!
Aw shucks thanks ya all. I am feeling better now thanks again for making it so welcoming to whomever steps in. I have really enjoyed CD since I have been here but this thread has made me feel so blessed to know more of you!
Now since I don't do all those fancy little dancing graphics please envision...................................
hands clapping, cartwheeling, jumping for joy, hand waving howdy, ear to ear grinning and a halo over head since I am so humbly honored by your comments.

Thank You, I really enjoyed the article......just now on my diet...the puds would be a no no but even reading about them was fun.
Jaxon, I was so happy to see you were the 15,000th poster! What better person but someone fairly new to here...a better welcoming then I could have given you! And what a nice way to help us out by your sharing here! We are so happy you have decided to join our little foodie community! But be aware...it may cause some wieght gain! But a lot of the people up here are weight conscious and help us out by posting some great ideas for low fat, good dinners!! Thanks for that 15,000 post my friend!
Welcome to the newbies here today and yesterday....once again I am in rep prison but as soon as I am released I will welcome you all properly!
VPCats....That is wonderful. Now if only I can do it! I've cut my smoking back but I just need to quit. You are so right that it isn't easy. I want to do it for my kids/grandkids so I will be around to see them all grow up! I will continue to keep working at it and with inspiration like yours maybe it will keep me focused!
Nomadicus, congratulations to you and your wife. Wow! You both must be doing something right!
Thanks Amber for the Steak Diane recipe. I will put it in my file. My little researcher and cook!
Lacey...see what happens when you get so thin? You no longer have any insulation against that cold! It won't be long hopefully and you'll be in a warmer place. Meantime, bundle up my friend.
Again, thanks to everyone for all the very nice things you have said about me. Sure makes a person feel good!!
