GRANDMA CATHERINE'S BLUEBERRY PIE
Homemade blueberry pie is a treat and this is a fantastic pie recipe. The filling uses fresh blueberries. It's sweet with a light tartness (thanks to a bit of lemon juice). A store-bought crust could be used, but this recipe is an easy crust to put together. Most crusts have to be refrigerated but this one can be rolled out...
