1. Place the egg yolks in a heatproof bowl and whisk slightly just to combine.2. Combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Carefully add the milk to the pan, whisking constantly until the mixture starts to thicken, about 8 minutes. Do not let the pudding come to a full rolling boil, just a wee gentle boil. Immediately remove the pan from the heat. 3. Slowly pour half the thickened milk into the egg yolks, whisking well. Return the pan to medium heat and gently and slowly add the yolk mixture to the pan. Still stirring constantly, bring the mixture back to a gentle boil, and continue to stir for 1 minute more. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Let cool.4. Whip the cream with a stand or handheld mixer until light and fluffy. Do not overbeat. Gently fold in the confectioners’ sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.5. Peel the bananas, cut them into 1/2-inch slices, sprinkle them with the lemon juice, and gently toss to coat.6. Spoon 2 cups vanilla pudding in the bottom of a 2-quart bowl. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup crushed wafers or, if you prefer them whole, 1/3 of the wafers. Arrange 1 cup of the sliced bananas any way you wish over the wafers. Spoon in the rest of the pudding and coat with 1 cup crushed wafers or almost all of the remaining wafers. Arrange the remaining banana slices on top of the wafers, reserving a few banana slices for garnish. Cover the entire surface with the whipped cream. If desired, decorate with the reserved banana slices and some more whole wafers. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Food Joke

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work. The first said, "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered." The second said, "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order." The third said, "I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded." The fourth one said, "I like to operate on lawyers. They're heartless spineless, gutless, and their heads and their ass are interchangeable."
