Well, Art, et al.....Coupla years ago when I found out that I was not only somewhat diabetic, but lactose intolerant as well, any custard made it's last appearance, unfortunately, on our table....I can still taste my very late mother's custard pie, which was right out of England! I did not even keep the recipe, alas. But given the right bunch of folk to feed it to, I am sure that I could come up with something......Rael, you try it, you aint got nuthin else to do now that winter has set in, in the North Woods, cept study. Hmmmm.....Twister al a chile custard? Cheers, Doug Irvine in Nanaimo, where the sun still shines!
