Blackberry Pie III

SUBMITTED BY: Carol PHOTO BY: Patriot

"Blackberries are plentiful where I am, and they taste great. Here is a recipe for such a pie. The pioneers thought that blackberries were a weed. Gradually it came into cookbooks for medicinal purposes - "blackberry syrup for cholera and summer complaint". This nuisance became very popular, and the berry is unique and very tasty."
