Kristel Wyman Photography :: Vancouver Wedding Photographer

i’m a member of a small group of photographers from all over the world, and we’re currently holding a print auction to raise funds for various relief programs in haiti. so far, we’ve raised over $1100 USD, and just today, a few of my absolute favourite photographers have agreed to contribute.

please check out the auction here, and place a bid for an incredibly important cause.

i know this comes at a bad time, since i’m sure 90% of you made a resolution to eat better effective today.  but really, you can start that tomorrow.  today, make this pudding.

1.  in a pan (not on stove), whisk together 2/3 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 tsp. salt.  very gradually, mix in 2 1/2 cups milk, then 4 large egg yolks.

2.  whisking constantly, cook mixture over medium heat until it begins to bubble.  reduce heat to low, cook one minute, still keep whisking.  immediately pour through a fine sieve into a bowl.  stir in 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract.  let cool.

3.  layer warm pudding with 12 shortbread cookies (crushed) and sliced bananas.  the pudding should be on the top layer to prevent browning of the bananas.  refrigerate until set, at least one hour.

4.  serve and eat.

i wish all of you an amazing 2010, and look forward to connecting with more of you soon.

thanks for being a part of my life in 2009.  it’s honestly been one of the best times of my life, and it means a lot to me that you’re all a part of it, in whatever capacity.

and little s, i’m sure life is looking up for you next year.  ;o)
