It was not your average Key Lime Pie, it was Icy cold, not to sweet, and not to sour, creamy, and it had a wavy whipped topping that made you think of the ocean. It was soooo good! So good, it made you shout, "Wow! This pie is out of this world!!!!"
Doris soon realized she had the recipe to that pie miraculously commited to her memory, and an unexplainable urge to make them. The pie was perfect for selling at their sweets shop, and so she started making and selling them.
Soon people were arriving from all over to buy , some were saying the pies had healing or protective qualities. Some said eating the pie saved their marriages, or that family arguments ceased upon eating the pie. In the late 1970's Doris could no longer keep up with the demand for her pies, so they closed the sweets shop and quietly slipped away to Key Largo.
Living in key Largo, Doris told No one about her pies. Soon that pie making urge caught up with her. This time, with the help of her family, they opened up a restaurant. Once again, Doris could serve her Key Lime Pie. The restaurant, (Key Largos' Crack'd Conch) served great food. Doris never thought, that what happened in Key West would happen again.
People would have just a slice after dinner, soon they were taking whole pies home, then two pies, (one for the neighbor).People were calling, "please, ship me a pie!", and so her pies started traveling all over the U.S.A., even the world!
