I'm not a big fan of lime pie, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The pie was really good.

The meringue on my pie didn't turn out quite right. It was a little too runny.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
