[Gemie]

[LoraLoo]

You cant beat a roast dinner! We arent having one today Saying that im not hungry we must have been up really early cos we had a drive out and went for a walk this morning, i came home and did lunch and checked the time and it was only 11.30am Oops

American biscuits are savoury. The gravy is thicker, more sauce like. It really is good.

The British do NOT put icing on a scone. It's not a cinnamon roll. Ew.

American pancakes are just like Scotch pancakes, not the crepe kind.

And there's not really a Yorkshire pudding equal in the USA. But you'd like it. I made some for my family, and they really liked them.

Ok so that is brown gravy to us. When you cook your roast or turkey you take the drippings and make it into gravy gravy with sausage for biscuits is white. We have two kinds of gravy what is the round bread? Seems like a roll which is more "bready" than a biscuit ( more like a dinner roll) but closer to it than a scone yummmmmm

 

[Tower6]

Yum!!! Crepes! I love those! Way more than a pancake!

Haha thanks! I didn't read through but it looks like you all were discussing differeces between us and Uk? I love those threads!

How is everybody feeling? The only real thing I notice is that I have to eat beef. I didn't eat any red meat for 14 years and all of a sudden I HAD to have it. I feel tiny bits of cramping and my nipples are getting a little sensitive. I'm still breastfeeding my 8 month old I dunno how long I'm going to. I cant imagine keeping up when the exhaustion n morning sickness hits.

Hope all is well with everyone.

Congrats and welcome Hun

Yeah we were getting confused by the difference between USA and uk foods

I was craving beef today but ended up with a pork joint instead, really wish I'd gone with it now. Never mind I'm sure the pork will be lovely

Tower, the round bread is a Yorkshire pudding.

I'm American but have lived in the UK for 10.5 years, so I think I've got it mostly all translated in my head.

Biscuits there are like savoury scones. It's nice. What the British call biscuits, Americans call cookies. And I also think they celebrate St Patrick'S Day more than real Irish people.

Yes, St. Patrick's Day here is a national holiday. Where you don't have to be Irish to celebrate. And DH says it's quite true Americans do celebrate i more than Ireland itself. LOL Mostly people here use it as an excuse to drink all day. DH and his brother are going out later for a few Guinness. I just like the food and such. we have lots of parades all over the country too.

 

[peanutmomma]

this is biscuits and gravy but I don't have the fries with it

 

[peanutmomma]

just to let all you other ladies know I am a POAS addict too. I have one cheapy from a local store I just peed on and since I have read that weeks 7 ish one can start to get the hook effect I peed a little in a cup then added about a teaspoon, or 1/3 oz, of water then used the dropper to put the 4 drops on the test. i will post it after i write this LOL as soon as drop 4 hit the spot where you add it the line came up on the Test part a few seconds before the control even got to start. I am silly. DH said he didn't mind bc we were trying to see if the hook effect was working yet and BC I have read that I am not the only momma to be that wants to make sure everything is working right.

This is literally 5 seconds after I added the pee to it. This makes test number 10 at home 12 in all

 

[zowiey]

Wow! What did I miss??!
My dinner was amazing, Why are Grandma dinners so good?! She even made chocolate sponge with chocolate custard. Yum!

Peanut, I have never seen biscuits & gravy before, is the gravy meaty or creamy? Interesting!

As for Yorkshire puddings, they are so tasty! Hubby's uncle & cousins are Canadian & whenever they come over, always want Yorkshire puddings.

I'm now sat on the settee in my onsie watching only fools & horses! It's like the perfect Sunday for me!

 

[Tower6]

Yumm ok so I thought Yorkshire pudding was the brown gravy lol but if it's the round tying then "pudding" isn't like pudding to us haha Im craving tapioca and that's nowhere close!! Lol
manda- what do you have there that would be like jello brand instant pudding?
