I feel so lucky to live in an area where strawberries are grown. I am spoilt, I just do not like them from the store. I love to go to the farmers market and buy them there. I am definitely spoilt!!!! I just love Fresh strawberry pie. Make whatever crust that you like. Graham Cracker crust or a pie dough crust. They are both great. I usually buy Danish Desert and cook that up and put over the fresh strawberries in the pie crust. But, I have only been able to get Danish Desert in Utah. They do not sell it in California. Whenever my mother-in-law comes to visit she brings me some. When I do not have any I use this recipe which is really good. I am just being lazy using the Danish Desert. Here is to the season for Fresh Strawberries!!!!!!!
