I made a pie!

As I've mentioned before, I'm not a good cook. I do like to bake though! I have never made a pie before and I found a great recipe in the Better Homes and Gardens magazine so I thought, why not try it? Well, it came out perfectly!!! I'm so excited! I didn't burn the crust or anything!

Believe it or not, it tastes sooooooooooo yummy! Reminds me of pecan pie! Here's the recipe:
