Strawberry Peach Pie
There’s a common theme happening when it comes to my favorite recipes. See, anyone who knows me well will know that my favorites all come from one common source. My favorite recipes are all from a box of recipes that my grandfather left me when he passed away. There are main courses and desserts, plus everything in between, and every time I pry through the box, I’m greeted by glimpses of flavors that my great grandparents so carefully placed on recipe cards. They’re the foods my grandparents enjoyed eating growing up, foods my mom enjoyed as a young child.
Whenever I stumble on a recipe that my great grandmothers penned, I just feel this call to make it. This is one of those recipes that I couldn’t wait to make, especially in the springtime. It’s a perfect, heavenly strawberry peach pie. Just the name of it made my mouth water, and the taste? Divine.
