Personal Notes:
This took longer than the recommended time but was worth the wait. I'd never eaten sweet potato pie until I went to Luby's in El Paso with some neighbors. Luby's is cafeteria style, and I selected what I thought was pumpkin pie. What a lucky mistake for me. This is every bit as good as pumpkin pie.

Oh by the way, you've never really had the Texas experience if you haven't been to Luby's!
