I love this recipe.

Loooooooove it.

I am not sure where it came from, but I've had it for many years.

It is a perfect early summer recipe, as fresh strawberries makes it sing.

Use the fresh strawberries - before your family eats all of them!

Make sure you proof the crust.

Proofing means that you use a fork to poke holes in the pie crust before baking. The holes allow any steam that forms under the crust to escape before it can make bubbles. A smooth pie crust does not have big bubbles under it.
