Cooking instruction summary:

1. Place rack in center of oven. Preheat oven to 350°F.2. Melt 4 Tablespoons butter & brush onto one side of each of the bread slices.

Toss and set aside.4. When the bread is toasted, reduce oven temp. to 325°F. and set a large roasting pan half-filled with hot water on the middle rack to act as a water bath. Trim the crusts off the bread and cut each slice of bread diagonally in half into triangles.5. Use the remaining 1 Tablespoon butter to grease a 9x12-inch glass baking dish at least 1 1/2-inches deep. Line the sides of the baking dish with the pieces of bread, points up. Line the bottom of the dish with more of the bread. Stand the remaining bread, points up, wedged between the bottom slices. (Don't worry if there are some spaces in between the slices or if the pieces standing up lean over a bit.)6. Scatter strawberries onto the bread and around the baking dish. Scatter half of the chocolate chips over the bread and between the slices.7. In a large saucepan, heat the half-and-half and the remaining 1 cup sugar over moderate heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar, until the mixture is hot but not boiling.8. In a medium bowl, beat the whole eggs and egg yolks to blend. Whisk in vanilla. Remove the hot half-and-half from the heat. Whisk hot mixture into eggs 1/2 cup at a time, gradually warming up the egg mixture and not 'cooking' it. Pour the custard through a sieve into the baking dish. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top. Set the dish in the roasting pan in the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the custard is just set. Remove from the water bath and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

Food Joke

Another version of The Good Wife Guide This article (believe it or not) is an actual extract from a Home Economics textbook printed in the early 1960’s. It is absolutely true and it was written in a serious manner – it was not written as a joke. So you women out there, please don’t blame me. In fact I for one am glad things have changed in the 21st century as much as they have! Challenge. If anyone wants to prepare, “The Good Husband Guide” as you think it might have been written in the 1960’s, then send it to me. Have dinner ready. Plan ahead even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready on time for his return from work. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Prepare yourself. Take 15minutes to rest so you will be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh looking. He has just been with a lot of work weary people. Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it. Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives. Gather up schoolbooks, toys, papers etc and then run a dust cloth over the tables. During the colder months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. After all, catering for his comfort will provide you immense personal satisfaction. Make the evening his. Never complain if he goes out to dinner or other places of entertainment without you. Instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need to be at home and relax. Try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order and tranquillity. Don’t complain if he’s late home for dinner or even stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day. Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him. Arrange the pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. Once he has had a chance to have his evening meal, clear the dishes and wash up promptly. If your husband should offer to help decline his offers – he may feel obliged to repeat this offer and after a long working day he does not need the extra work. Encourage your husband to pursue his hobbies and interests and be supportive without seeming to encroach. If you have any little hobbies try not to bore him speaking of these, as women’s interests are often rather trivial compared to men’s. at the end of the evening tidy the home ready for the morning and again think ahead to his breakfast needs. Once you have both retired to the bedroom prepare yourself for bed as promptly as possible. Your tired husband does not want to queue for the bathroom, as he would have to do for his train. However, try to remember to look your best when going to bed. Try to achieve a look that is welcoming without being obvious. If you need to apply face cream or hair rollers wait until he is asleep as this can be shocking to a man last thing at night.
