Pies for Father’s Day

Delicious homemade strawberry pie topped with shiny glaze and fresh strawberries. Perfect for desser.

My dad loved pie, and actually made one type out of Concord grapes. I almost hate to mention what he called it, but you know me — I will say it anyway: slipgut pie.

The name originated from the fact that you squeezed each grape with your fingers and the insides would pop out into a bowl or measuring cup.

Other pies made in our household included lemon meringue, apple, apricot, peach, blackberry, rhubarb, pecan, pumpkin and mincemeat. As for myself, I have three rhubarb plants that keep me supplied with plenty of “pie plant” filling, but about half the time I just make the filling on top of the stove and forget about making a crust.
