SC - OOP cooking questions

[Page Huchinson]

Hi there,
    As far as fruit goes you can try just about anything.  I have tried rum soaked
pumpkin for the holidays with raisons. (yummy)   As far as your pie goes, It can be
done.  It would be good to.  Bake about 30 mins and 325. That is depending on the
pre backed pie crust and if it is homemade or store made.

Happy eating ,
Page the Great
