This year, she told me she was making Libby's- from a can. I explained that my pie really wasn't hard, and she should do it. Without being there to make it, she wanted to reduce some of the cooking so fair enough. Needless to say I was happy to hear she ended up making this pie after all. Good job, Mom.
