I always think that winter must be over when I start craving a strawberry pie. I love buying fresh strawberries from the farmer's market and making one or two batches of freezer jam. Since we have moved to the mid south I bought my first flat of Mississippi strawberries a couple of weeks ago and they were delicious. I knew right away that I wanted a strawberry pie with these strawberries.
I got out one of my trusty church cookbooks that is full of all the "classic" recipes. I hope you can find some time to make this while the strawberries and fresh and plentiful. Enjoy!
