In a bowl, beat together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is light and forms a ribbon when
the beaters are lifted.  Add the half and half in a stream while stirring then transfer to a heavy saucepan
and cook over moderately low heat until the mixture thickens.  Do not boil.  Remove the pan from the
stove and stir in the vanilla.  Strain the custard through a sieve into a metal bowl set in a bowl of ice, and let it cool,
stirring occasionally.  Chill covered.
