Excellence. The crust is delicious (especially when brushed with butter before baking). I added an extra 1/4 cup of sugar to the filling and a little extra lemon zest and juice to both the crust and the filling. Perfect blueberry lemon combination :)
This pie was absolutly delicious. It was my first attempt at a homemade pie ever and it was a complete success!
