I love this pie- This is my Nana's and my Mom's cherry pie-
For the longest time I made this for Jay on his birthday. Sometime ago-I had asked him what kind of pie he liked and he said "berry."
Well when he said "berry"- somewhere in my mind I thought that meant "cherry!"
So whenever I would ask what he wanted and he would say "berry," I always made "cherry!"
3 years ago- On his birthdayI finally learned what he meant when he said- "berry"- We laughed and laughed over this miscommunication! I wonder how many more years we would have gone, with him wanting berry, and me making cherry!
I wish I could say that I made the crust- but no-
My mother in law makes the best crust, and someday I will learn how- but not today-
Cherry Pie
1 can red tart cherries in their juice

Mix all together & let set for 15 minutes. Stir and put in pie crust. Add top crust and vent. Cook for 15 minutes @450, then for 25 minutes @350 or until brown.
