THE birthday dessert

This is a story of Pie. Although there is no bacon in the ingredients it is a lovely pie indeed. My Nan used to bake me a similar pie for my birthday when I was younger. She is one of those women who doesn't write down recipes...which makes it very difficult for me...I cant remember what color my chonies are without looking much less remember an entire pie recipe. Several years ago I came up with this recipe...I have given it out to two ladies...they both appreciate the finer pies in life.



I could eat the crust alone...

Mmmmm....there is always a bit of leftover custard. I have to sneak eat it before the others get wind and herd to the stove.




Meringue is always so pretty!




This is it!! I served it for the Hubs birthday. It remained intact until dessert time....
