Wish List
So, now that it's December, I figured I'd put up my Christmas Wish List. I've been a very moderately good girl this year, so maybe Santa will be nice to me. :)
Rules
1. Make a post to your LJ. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from something simple and fandom-related to something really big. The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
2. Surf around your friends list to see who has posted their list. If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy.
3. There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
1. Some new icons. Bobby Drake in recent comics would be good. So would some holiday icons from Psych. I like funny phrases, but I'm bad at thinking them up. Other fandoms that would be awesome - Burn Notice, Rhamdom (it's totally a fandom!), and Castle.
2. A header for my LJ and someone willing to install it! Same fandoms as above, but really anything that you know I'll like, I'll like!
3. Music suggestions. I've hit a wall and need something to help me out here. I like alternative and hard rock, but I would be amiss to some classical or something funky. I've just acquired Josh Ritter, so anything like that, too. Just... no country, unless you think it's so amazing that it will override my kneejerk hate of twang.
4. A fandom calendar with various pictures of my various fandoms. That would be awesome!
5. For the Recathon to go well and people to enjoy themselves in it. (I get nervous!)
6. For someone to help me unpack boxes and get my office organized. (I just moved.)
7. Fic. In particular, I would like to see any of the following pairings (or just single characters, too!): Marvel - Bobby Drake/Peter Parker, Namor/Anyone, really, Hank/Brand, Hank&Bobby friendship fic (preferably set in current canon), original 4/5 fic set in current canon, or original 5 fic set anywhere. Burn Notice - Michael/Fiona or Michael/Sam are equally lovely. Michael&Nate gen fic. Michael/James Bond if you're adventurous. :D Castle - anything at all, but Esposito and Ryan would be epic.
8. Recipes! I'd love everyone to leave me their favorite holiday recipe. I'll even put up a master post if I get enough and share with everyone!
9. Long shot: someone to figure out my health issue and actually cure me. Or, you know, health insurance.
10. Either paid LJ time or icon time for here or for
bewize. Always a plus.
Now, if you have a list, please, please *please* link me to it. I've been without internets for a while and I can search back, but it'll take a while!

3 TBSP of butter, room temperature.
1 – 1 ½ loaves of French/Cuban/Italian bread. Enough to fill a 9” x 13” baking pan.
4 Cup Milk (or use 2 c. Milk and 2 c. Heavy Cream)
2 Cup Sugar
3 Eggs
2 TBSP of vanilla extract
1 TBSP of cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 375 deg.
Butter the pan – all three tablespoons. Cut up the bread and lay it in the pan, face sides almost down, sorta staggered. Fill any empty spaces with bread pieces.
Whisk together the rest of the ingredients. Pour the mixture in the pan, covering all of the bread. Let it set for at least an hour, and pat down the bread with a spatula every once in a while to cover the tops with the custard mixture.
Bake at 375 deg for about 45 mins, until the edges are brown.
Whiskey Sauce
8 TBSP Butter (1 stick)
1 Cup Sugar
¼ Cup Whiskey (1 mini bottle)
2 TBSP Water
1 TSP Ground Nutmeg
1 egg
In a heavy saucepan, melt butter, then whisk together the next 4 ingredients on medium heat. Beat the egg in a separate bowl and set aside. Remove the sauce from the heat, then whisk in the egg. Heat back to a simmer, whisking constantly until it thickens. Then pour is over the top of the pudding.
