  1. What a great find. It's sure to be a great cooking textbook with fabulous recipes. Thank you for this recipe. I will be making it especially for my husband soon. Lemon Meringue Pie is his favorite and I'm sure he will love this version of Lemon Pie. Thanks for participating in Vintage Recipe Thursday too. :-)

  6. Lemon pie is my middle son's favorite..he always asks for it instead of birthday cake. His birthday is the end of this month so I'll have to try your recipe!
