My first homemade pie...

With inspiration from Megan Lawing I made a strawberry pie tonight. Didn't get to actually taste it because I didn't put it in the oven until a few minutes after midnight, but it was fun.

First I got all of the ingredients laid out. 4 cups of strawberries, 1 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of flour, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt.

Next, I cut the pie crust into strips and put them over the top in a basket-weave pattern. I used a fork to press down the edges and kitchen shears to cut off any excess dough.

I baked it all at 425 degrees for 25 minutes and got a beautiful result....complete with oozing strawberry juices! I can't wait to taste it, but for now....off to bed!
