Popover

It seems to have been a while

 since a food got a day

all to itself. 

Today changes that. 

Blueberry Popover Day. 

Again, I have no idea

what a popover is...

(Sounds a little “dotty” to me!) 

It seems that:

popovers are unpredictable

– but delicious. 

They are not that pretty

 to look at.  Apparently,

they are a distant relative

 – in whatever way food

can be related –

to the Yorkshire Pudding

(which puts me

right back to square one!). 

 So, throw some butter,

jam, jellies and honey together

(with flour, sugar and eggs). 

Popovers use steam

to make the ingredients rise...

which later fall in

on themselves

in an ugly pile. 

After all of that,

 I still feel a little

 in the dark

as to what a popover

actually is. 

Maybe I need to eat one

 to really understand!
