Custard at home

Trying again to make custard. This is one-third of the recipe (so one egg's worth), which is really enough for two people, as far as the amount of sugar. I ate all with cheap frozen strawberries and it was good, so I'm satisfied with the recipe and my technique, although I'd light to reduce the batch and maybe try with brown sugar and corn starch for flour (to make two substitutions). 

Tonight I made tart crusts. I deviated from the recipe and see how that made a difference, but I'll actually not put one together with the custard until tomorrow to see how it works. If it fails, it just means I have to try again, and I've got 6 more eggs I need to use, ideally this week.
