Notes: Eileen was our neighbor in McDade Estates after the Brocks moved away. Great Flan. She made this for the hospital staff during the years when I worked there, and all the times we would bring food I never got as much as I wanted because I had to stay with the patients. She was a nurse but is now director of the surgery department. She’s a little younger than me. At the end of browning the sugar, put in a little water to the mix so that it is easier to get more of the caramel sauce out of the pan when you turn it out. Double the caramel sauce for special occasions.
