During WWII my ex-in-law's lived above a bakery in New York. When my father-in-law was returning from overseas, his wife wanted to make him a special pie with the crust he loved from the bakery. She asked the owner for the recipe and she refused, because it was her livelihood. Read more After a few days, she offered the recipe IF SHE NEVER GAVE IT TO ANYONE. Eileen kept this promise, even after moving to Arizona, until she got word that she had passed away. This is a very requested recipe in our family. See less
