Favorite Dessert: Custard Pie
Unfortunately, me plus polygamists equals frowny face, so it's best to just leave the prophet life facts alone until we get past the Manifesto (which actually happened during Joseph F. Smith's presidency. Hurray for monogamy!)
So while his life will remain a blank for me until I can calmly deal with the idea of polygamy, we will enjoy this gem:
This is Joseph F. Smith and his freaking enormous family, with lots of grumpy faces and one ray of sunshine just to the prophet's right:
I love this kid. Makes me happy everytime these ol' polygamists get me riled up.
On to the dessert!
Custard Pie
Ingredients
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
3 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg white
2 1/2 cups scalded milk
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 drops yellow food coloring (optional)
Directions
1.Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
2.Mix together eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Stir well. Blend in the scalded milk. For more yellow color, add few drops yellow food coloring.
3.Line pie pan with pastry, and brush inside bottom and sides of shell with egg white to help prevent a soggy crust. Pour custard mixture into piecrust. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
4.Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool on rack.
It actually tasted a lot like flan, only less delicious. We did top it with caramel sauce, so it was pretty delicious.

Yeah, that whole polygamy thing is a bit hard to swallow. I love that you guys are doing this feasting with the prophets activity. What a great way to get to know the prophets! You are such a great mommy. It's weird that you aren't here while Robin & her boys are here. We miss you and your fake Texas accent! Ha- you know you're from the 909!
