Our neighborhood store/deli/bakery closed this year due to the downturn in the economy. They made pineapple pies, so we had to find a recipe. We chose yours and a few people said it was even better than the store's. So easy to make and absolutely delicious. Thanks for sharing Grandpa and Grandma. We will be making it again for Thanksgiving!
