great head start in life

My mom would make Yorkshire pudding to serve with roast beef and gravy
(made from the beef drippings). Personally, Yorkshire Pudding reminds
me of a popover in taste and texture. It'a absolute Heaven! Carol

Our life may not always be the party we would have chosen, but while we
are here, we may as well dance!

Not exactly. You can pour the batter over fruit or have the YP with
syrup or jam

Since 2000 I live in Piedmont in a country near Turin called "Germagnano"
(many trees, rivers and mountains here).
Before I lived in "Castelli Romani" - Rocca di Papa (near Frascati-Rome).
There I have two brothers and my mother.

> Pandora posted this, and I saved it before the deluge. It is charmingly

insightful,and captures the ethos of the 'now really' Deep South. We have a

we try, can not avoid. I have been remiss in answering some posts,and for
that I apoligize to all. As a Trombonist I have done many gravesite
'Dixieland Salutes' that as the mourners approach "Just a Closer Walk With
Me" was played,the service ended and a designated person shouted "Lay him
down boys,it's time to get on with the living". "When the Saints Go Marching
In" escorted the mourners to their cars. I was doing well until last night
and Faith Hill and some great nusicians did "Take My Hand Precious Lord" on
NBC.

Choke..Gotta go.

Pandora,

It was under your post in thread,Yorkshire Pudding on 8/8/2005 at 1:20 AM.
That was the first time I saw it,and I wanted to give you credit for it. My
grand parents on my mothers side were from a small town in Abruzzi. Do not
worry..

Salute

Hubert... (Umberto) ?
