Oh, man, are they good! And the Toad in the Hole is outrageous. I could eat that for brekkies every morning, easily! And the Yorkshire pudding has me revamping my rather strict grocery budget to allow for more roast beef.
wow! those are really interesting dishes to learn to make!
Yorkshire pudding doesn't HAVE to go with roast beef - it's often eaten with other meats in the uk too....or even as a dessert with some syrup or jam
I live in Yorkshire, and there are several pubs that make plate sized puds and serve them filled with stews. Basically, anything goes :lol3:
so you're really learning it more 'the hard way', without benefit of books and a course! very impressive!
i did not know that! very interesting!
I've just learnt that Sherpa is the name of an indigenous group of people from the north part of Nepal. I always thought Sherpa was a job title, but in fact it refers to ethnicity. With so many mountaineers in my family I should have known that.
very cool!
yes, i thought the Toad in the Hole sounded like it would taste very good.
Nah, I wouldn't say impressive. I often feel like I'm "faking" my way through things lol. I mean, I know I'm picking things up here and there, and yeah, it's pretty hard at times. But considering I never even knew how to do a select statement (which is the simplest SQL ever) a year ago... yeah, I'm happy with how far I've come. Especially considering it was all stuff learned on the job. I will say I googled a lot of things though!

in the company for which my brother works in QA, he told me that when he (or any of the other employees there) first started working there, the company was putting more into him learning/teaching him than they were getting back from him. and the company was fine with that, because as he's learned more and more he first started 'pulling his weight' with his work and now contributes by teaching other employees things he knows...while still learning from other employees there. i really like that about the company he works for.

I should make note of this for when I do my self-review today
that's the kind of thing that i'm sure i'd remember, that the post office has those hand carts available -- probably for the rest of my life!
oh! now that's just so cool!
I watched an old QI program last night and discovered it is possible to tickle yourself!
We're always told it's impossible, but try running your finger over the roof of your mouth...
