Recipe
Preparation
Prepare the custard first: Mix the cornstarch with the half & half.
Heat the milk with the sugar just to boiling in a heavy saucepan.
Remove from the heat. Stir in the cornstarch mixture. Return to heat.
Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens. Simmer 2 or 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat. Add the vanilla and the egg yolks. Whisk until
almost cold. Cover. Chill. Prepare the trifle: Cut the cake into even
slices. Spread each with jam and reassemble the cake. Cut into 2"
cubes. Arrange the cubes in individual bowls. Sprinkle with cream
sherry. Wash and slice the strawberries. Set a few strawberries aside
for garnish. Divide the strawberries among the individual bowls. Pour
the custard over the strawberries and cake in the bowls. Drizzle with
a little strawberry jam. Cover each bowl. Chill. Whip the cream until
soft peaks form. Add the sugar and vanilla. Garnish each trifle with
some sliced strawberries. Top with whipped cream. Chill briefly.
Serve.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
Recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. At times when going through a hectic day, you imagine you feel hunger but if truth be told you just need a restorative tumbler of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
Some lower carbohydrate diet tips:
* Make low carbohydrate bread crumbs for breadcrumb coated foods.
Although you can sometimes buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can make them at home by using reduced carb bread. All you have to do is toast the low carb bread in the oven on a cookie sheet. When it is well browned, whizz it in the food processor or blender. To store, keep in a tupperware container.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes paprika, turnip greens and tomato puree)
These colorful plants have high levels of carotenes (alpha and beta) believed by scientists to play a role in helping stop cancer, spefically cancer of the lungs. The majority of these are also low in calories, so you should add them to your weight loss program.
