50% would make again

We live along a 130-year-old railroad track (our house once was a train station) edged a couple weeks a year with wild raspberries that I pick for my pie. My husband's an airline mechanic. We have two children—6 and 3.

To decrease the amount of sugar I substitute Splenda for the sugar, use sugar free whipped topping, and make a walnut flour crust. It's still wonderful!
