I'm crust challenged. Probably because I've used oil rather that
lard or butter. That said, what I make is still a big improvement
over anything you can buy commercially. I always make a couple of
one crust sweet potato pies each holiday season. Occassionally,
I'll make a two crust apple pie. Again no comparison to the lousy
store or bakery pies.

I try to avoid making any pies or desserts as I'll eat them up
too fast.

Yes, that could be a problem
