Why I Love This Recipe
Mom makes the best pies. I've tried to make the crust like hers, but to no success. When she no longer will make the pie for a family holiday meal, we will have to switch to cake for dessert. (Unless one of the grandchildren master her pie crust.)

1 c. flour
1/2 t. salt
2-3 T. cold water
