Overall, I thought this pie was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pie turned out a complete disaster. The crust was burnt and the filling was raw.

The pie was easy to make, but it didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The crust was a little too dry and the filling was a little too runny.

This pie was a little too tart for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll add some more sugar to the filling.
