Roast Chicken with Homemade Gravy and Yorkshire Pudding

Good old comfort food, that's what I'm talking about.  You know, the kind of food that makes you want to curl up under a blanket next to a roaring fire.  And what's better than a roast chicken served with homemade gravy and yorkshire pudding?  Not much.
For the gravy, I use homemade chicken stock instead of the water called for in the recipe.  Also, use the leftover chicken carcass to make your own homemade chicken stock.  I make tons of stock during the summer, when fresh herbs are readily available, and then I just freeze it and use it all year long. This meal is so easy and so good, it's a perfect meal for the fall season.
