Tonight I made haupia for the first time.
This coconut pudding, haupia, is a staple desert at every Hawaiian luau. I had to make it early for Thursday - our last Foster care class.

Haupia
Ingredients:
4 cups coconut milk
2-1/2 cups water
1-1/4 cups sugar
1 cup cornstarch
Instructions:
Combine the coconut milk and water. Stir until smooth. Add the sugar and cornstarch. Cook over low heat until thickened and shiny. If the haupia is grainy, you need to keep cooking the mixture because the fat in the coconut milk has not yet melted.

What made you want to try a Hawaiian dessert? All these years in Hawaii and I've just never had a taste for haupia. I like it okay from Ted's bakery in his Chocolate Cream Haupia Pie. :)
Your kids are adorable! It was good to hear from you, how are you doing? I don't keep in touch with very many people from Granger - and it is always nice to see a friendly face!
I'm so glad you started a blog - it will be fun to keep up with you guys! Your kids are so cute! Are you guys going to do foster care? How's that going? That's something we'd like to do...someday...way in the future someday, lol!
Have a great day!!
I like the new look Christi! I'm glad I could help you, even if it was just a little bit :O)!
So I read on your blog a long time ago that you were thinking about adopting...but at the time my comment wouldn't go through the system... so I never got through to ask you about it. But now it looks like this one should go through...
So, you guys are adopting? We'll have to call and get the latest.
talk to you later,
