Dh was wanting to make beef stroganoff, so I set out to make egg noodles. I searched online and looked a number of recipes, eventually settling on mixture of two different ones (from About.com, Cooks.com and from CDKitchen). I ended up using 2 C flour, 1/4 t salt, and 3 eggs, and pretty much followed the About.com instructions.
The flour and salt, mixed together with a fork:
I made a well in the center of the flour mixture and added the 3 eggs:
Per the About.com instructions, I scrambled the eggs first with the fork, then slowly started incorporating the flour:

I twirled the dough ribbons into a streamer-like shape, just for fun:
