Ohh my goodness!! Lemon is a favorite of mine! Its so bright and tangy, whats not to love! This recipe has me super excited. Its so simple and easy to follow. The ingredients are simple and I have all in the pantry already! And a video? How genius of you! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, looking forward to surprising the family with it!
You are welcome @smylie2005 It is a bright and refreshing pie. Glad you enjoyed.
@tesscooks4u - Good post, clear and easy to follow recipe and instrucions. Full disclosure - I know nothing about baking. But the pie looks great, and from the ingredients list, sure to be tasty!
When I watched the video I was surprised to hear you first mention 'the good memories' that making this pie brought back. Because my grandmother is the first thing I thought of.
My grandmother loved to bake - biscuits, buns, pies, cookies and more. She used an old style combo wood / oil fired stove, lots of warmth in the winter. Lemon meringue pie was one of her productions. Yes, the smell of something baking in the oven is lovely.
Thank you for the post!
Oh yes, I also love lemon meringue pie and I ALSO cooked on a wood stove for a good number of years. It is really different cooking but I enjoyed it. Glad I could bring you some good memories. Take care and thanks so much for visiting @mmo-mmo

You know what they say "when life gives you lemons MAKE PIE". That looks absolutely delicious and considering I have soooo many lemons I now know what I can do with some of them! I would appreciate the recipe for the candied lemon slices too! Looking forward to trying your pie and thanks for sharing it with us!
We love lemons! Yes, I will need to make a video or write down the recipe for the candied lemons. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
I love that @danielsaori found yet another awesome and diverse post to have us comment on this week. While I will never be mistaken as a person who could make this piece of beauty, I am certainly one that would enjoy the finished product. ;)
I love lemon pie and this looks very tasty indeed. If you were near me, I would keep you busy with orders as I could eat this every day!!! And the presentation if very good, it looks like something you would find in a fine artsy New York restaurant. :)
Good job on the post and I hope you and your family really enjoys eating this Tess. I'm sure it will taste as good as it looks, and that is the real joy in making such a wonderful creation!
Thanks so much for all the kind words @davemccoy. Have a wonderful day.

This looks refreshing. Thanks for the video. I love anything made with lemons. Its incredible that you made this with few ingredients, ingredients that i have already in my pantry☺. What in the world would be my excuse for not trying it. I ate rice to my fill this night, but how the hell am i hungry now, hope i am okay!
I just went through your blog and i
wantdemand a portion of everything you cooked starting from the stir fries to the sandwiches to the baked chicken to the soup etc. I am sure you won that steemit sandwich contest because i trust you were a huge competitor. I can't wait for what you have next :) So on point.Thanks so much @georgchuks I am sure you will like the lemon pie. Thanks again for searching my site and seeing what I have to offer.

Thanks for visiting and commenting @olivia08
Welcome my dear,
I will be your avid fans maam starring today
This might be the kind of lemon pie I am looking for. We have had several pies here in our place but all are lemon/lime pie cheesecake. I like food that is zesty. However, the pies I have tasted so far lacks the lemon-ness I am searching for. The ingredients are easy to find and the procedure seems easy to do as well. I hope I can let my sister do this for later this week lol!
Thanks @leeart. It is lemony and good......and easy. Hope you enjoy.
Thank you for this recipe :)
