After that was all settled, I went to run some errands. In this errand running, I found strawberries on sale at HEB... so I bought 2 pounds. When Eric was about 3, and didn't care for strawberries, I ended up buying a bunch after somebody at work bought a couple of flats from a local strawberry farm. Anyway, along with bringing home more strawberries than I knew what to do with, I had a recipe for a strawberry pie that I also got from work. (That's one thing a job at the county was good for: collecting recipes.) So I brought the recipe and strawberries home and made the two pies the recipe produces and from that point on, Eric loved strawberries. I was hoping he'd like the pie but he LOVED it. When I came home from HEB with 2 pounds of strawberries yesterday, I found out that pie recipe is GONE. I've looked everywhere. I even looked online but couldn't find it. Instead of making one of the similar recipes I found, I decided to make a totally different one. The other involved cool whip and had a fluffy texture. What I made was just a plain strawberry pie with crust on top and bottom like any other fruit pie... more specifically, the apple pie I made last week.
The reviews said it was a somewhat runny so I added more flour and it still came out a little runny. You know what though? That doesn't matter because we ate it anyway and enjoyed it. Then I had some for breakfast too. It's thicker today after being in the refrigerator all night and cold strawberry pie is awesome for breakfast. I just look it as a homemade Pop-Tart. Makes sense, right?
