Notes: The first time I went to the keys I was 5 years old. It was me my mom and dad and my grandmother. There was a bakery across the street from the motel. They had the best pie!! My grandmother was not shy and she asked for the recipe, they gave it to her! We have been making this pie ever since. We consider this to be real key lime piie.
