Grape Pie

Submitted by cando

"I had an overabundance of grapes a couple years back. I had no idea of what to do with them all. I had already made 70 jars of grape jam. I stumbled on this pie in the Best of Amish Cooking by Phyllis Pellman Good and combined it with a recipe I found on www.allrecipes.com that was submitted by Terri. This is what I came up with."
