I do like it when you get all clever on us Artha!

SOmeone was talking about Yorkshire puds earlier (still catching up, only 3 pages to go!).
I have always cooked them using milk, but someone suggested trying using water instead (my landlady!) they were great, but further development is that if you put a tablespoon of powdered milk (skimmed milk type, not coffee compliment type) into the mix, they are the best yorkshires ever!! Trust me and try it!

I'm afraid I'm a bit lazy in that respect and rely on my good old Aunty Bessie to make my puds:o

Just on an off-chance, did you ever attend a college in Sunderland Artha?

No but I did start an MSc in Polymer Science in Newcastle. I worked in Sunderland for 4 years in Tatham Street:)

well they are sealed in a plastic bag in Ds school bag after finding out that the food colour works better when mixed with vinegar. This turned out to be true:eek: but OMG do they stink! boiled eggs+ vinegar :eek::eek::eek:

Im not releasing the pong at this time, but if Im up early in the morning I will......unless you have some pressing egg decorating to do right now ? :rotfl:
