Default First pie... epilogue

Gott in Himmel!! This pie is brilliant! Mrs Smith, kiss my ass!

Jes tried few bites. To-freakin-die-for. Yes, the crust taste a bit
plain from lack of salt, but it's not soggy or flabby. Jes right to
balance the juicyness of the berries. The berries are VERY sweet, as
to be expected from 1 C sugar, but the raw berries weren't the
sweetest in the first place and I love a SWEET pie.

I think the crust needs some more fat. Maybe butter. More water,
definitely. Tastes good, but dry as dirt. Only the juicy
berries and loads of sugar save it. Despite that, still great.

Overall, I LIKE it! and would not be ashamed to serve it to anybody.
I'm actually rather proud of it and can say it's better than any store
bought blackberry pie I've tasted in a long time. Woo-hoo!!

Can't wait to try this again. Maybe with tapioca. Isn't it rhubarb
season? w00t!
