Personal Notes:
This was not only one of Papa Pete's favorites, but it was mine, too! We rarely made this because a company called "Table Talk Pies" made them fresh and we could buy them anytime we wanted. When I moved to the South, there weren't any coconut custard pies, but there were custard pies. Somehow, they didn't taste the same.
