Never Fail Recipe for a sweet Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie

Preheat oven (to 425 degrees)

Combine 2 1/2 tablespoons of tapioca with:
sliced strawberries (suggested: 4 cups)
at least 1 cup of sliced rhubarb
2/3 cups of sugar
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
a pinch of ground nutmeg
a pinch of salt

Mix all this well

Roll the bottom crust out and put into the bottom of a pie plate

Pour in the filling from above

Slice upper/top crust into strips:
-lay every other strip horizontally across the top of the pie
-weave the other half of the strips under-over vertically
(or viseversa)

(You may want to lie a sheet of foil on the rack underneath to catch any drippings.)

Put the pie on rack in center of oven for 20 minutes.

Rotate pie 180 degrees and lower the temperature in the oven to 325 degrees.

Bake for 30-35 more minutes.

Cool for two hours.

Enjoy!  Mother loves this immensely.
