Oh My, Pie........

My wife's pies are a work of art. The crust is the secret and the perfect one makes the best  pie.  While watching a older period movie I noticed the man cutting into a pie with a heavy duty crust both top and bottom.  The intention was to be able to pick it up with your hands.  No pretty plate with ice cream on the pie back then just pick it up and go.  The pie you see here is a mincemeat pie.
