Because it is Saturday, and my girls and I visited the strawberry patch not too long ago, I thought I would share my to-die-for strawberry pie recipe!!! It is one that I have made time and time again, and every single time, it comes out AMAZING! Strawberries are at the end of their peak season right now which means you can usually find them 2/$5 in most grocery stores!! Of course they're best when picked fresh, but you make do with whatever you can when it comes to cravings for a summer dessert. Pick up several and make some pies for your neighbors, too! It also makes a super impressive 4th of July dessert. No matter where you take it, this is sure to be a hit!!

Here's how to make it::
