It's been a while. Summer got busy, then school started, and I'm still working on the weekends. I made a trip up to my parents' a few weeks ago, my dad was in the hospital for awhile. I took dessert, Lottie's cherry cheese pie, which has been a family favorite as long as I can remember. It's also one of the easiest recipes in the book. I didn't use "Thank You" Brand pie filling, I wasn't aware it was still available until after I bought all the ingredients. As far as I can tell, it's only available at Buehler's, and I'm not driving 3 hours for pie filling. So I used Lucky Leaf. By the way, in 1962, Thank You brand pie filling was 3 Number 2 cans for $1 at Young's IGA. I spent a lot of time at that corner grocery store, but it was Smith's by the time I was old enough to run through the automatic doors. The recipe says it makes two pies, but in order to make two, I had to stop what I was doing and go buy another 21 oz can. I also used pre-made graham cracker crust. It turned out just like I remembered it.
