>I'll try some lemon meringue pie whenever I can because I don't get a chance too often. Most of the time, it's a disappointment - too sweet, not tart enough, or gummy. The last time had some was a couple of weeks ago. It was too sweet and I left half on a plate. I'm ever hopeful that a good one will come my way. Perhaps it'll happen soon.

I think the problem people have with lemon meringue pies is the fact
that a good many of them are not home-made. You can buy some truly
horrid frozen ones around here.

My lemon pies that I make from scratch are extremely good.
