Lime Pie

Last night in my ward, we had our annual "Bake Off" for Relief Society. You can bring an appetizer, bread, main dish, salad, or desert to share/be judged. The bishopric gets to judge everything and give the award for best in each category. OK, I have to start by saying that cooking is not my favorite hobby. It's not that I can't cook, I just don't. I keep saying that I should meal plan and get organized that way. .. but almost every night the question comes up. .. What is for dinner? So I scramble to put something delish together, which is half the time followed by complaints of "I don't like this". .. and I wonder why I don't enjoy cooking/mean planning. I do enjoy good food, however. There was a lot of good food last night. Not having much time, I decided to make this lime pie. I got the recipe from my good friend Barbara Paskett several years ago. I think this is what she makes for Keith on his birthday instead of cake. It is really good. Of course mine tastes fine, But last night it was left out on the table during judging/eating for two hours and melted at the church. Needless to say, mine wasn't even close to being voted as best desert.. .. but I bet if Barbara made it, it would have won. She has that touch on things. But after that long introduction, here is the recipe. Yummmy. Easy. Enjoy

That's it. Nice and easy.
