Went strawberry picking for unschooling {see here},and came home with the juiciest,red,plump,gorgeous,sweetest berry's that were just perfect for a pie. Cody helped me make the crust which was a first for me...usually I roll it out with rolling pin fold,place,pinch & then they can help.This time...cody and I pressed it into the pan with our fingers,much thicker than usuall. Shadd and I both agree the crust was PERFECT! Thank you Cody....for helping to make it just perfect....{crust when cut to place on plates held strawberries beautifully none of them fell off}.
