 Llewanne (Arizona) says:
This is the most outstanding lemon meringue pie ever! I have judged county fairs and this tops any pie! And if you live in a place like FL, AZ, CA that grows fresh lemons you will have an even better tasting pie cause the lemons are so fresh! I have made this pie for 30 years!
