"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Personal Notes:
I use this custard for many things, trifle, coconut cream pie, etc. For coconut cream just add some toasted coconut to the custard and sprinkle some coconut on top of meringue. This was your gramma Harvey's recipe that I have made for 45 years. I scratched the recipe down on a piece of paper when my mom was still alive and l have the original tattered page in a little recipe book I made once I became engaged to your dad, in Feb. 1959.
