100th Anniversary Kenmore Family Market Fresh Fruit Pie

When I was a child my mom made us a fresh fruit pie almost every night. Our family favorites were cherry & blueberry. There was always a leftover piece after dinner; I always wondered what happened to it. It wasn’t until I was much older that I discovered that after I went to bed, my father would finish off the remaining pie. Years passed & as we became more diet conscious & swept up in the demands of modern life, the pies disappeared, much to my chagrin. My younger sister, Kristine, was tutored in the art of pie making by her grandmother. I was amazed when she told me that her grandmother did not even have to measure ingredients when she made a pie crust. She did it strictly by sight. Kristine & I spent a couple of afternoons in her farm house kitchen in Whitewater & together made a couple of apple pies & tested out some ideas that she & I had for this pie. What a wonderful time that was. I love spending time with family, it is the most important thing in the world to me.
