Pie Crust from the Kitchen of Wanda Thompson

When one takes a spouse, they marry into a family full of traditions and customs.

And recipes!

To say that Coach’s family consists of good cooks is an understatement, and since our wedding 25 years ago, I have greedily copied down as many recipes as possible from my mother-in-law, my sisters-in-law, and even their in-laws.

This pie crust recipe comes from Coach’s sister-in-law’s mom. (Say that 10 times fast!!)

Miss Wanda – and her pie crust – are sweet treasures in our family!

Ingredients:

• 3 cups Flour
