Miss Mary's pies
Now I'm going to post a few pie recipes but I'm putting a disclaimer on them. Prepare at your own risk. After tasting you may feel like they were a waste of time and ingredients but then again you may blow your diet on them. Remember I am not a good cook. When we have church dinners they ask me to bring bottled drinks, I can't mess that up.
