Yum! Lemon Meringue Pie!

I can't remember a single holiday when I was growing up that there weren't at least two lemon meringue pies on the dessert table.

Every one tried to eat as fast as possible so that it wouldn't all be gone before we could get to it.

 

This lemon meringue pie recipe was in my mother-in-law's recipe collection. It is delicious!
