Buttermilk Pie

Posted by Lori:
I had heard of buttermilk pie, but had never eaten it until a few weeks ago at a church dinner. It was made by a friend and I asked if I could post it.  I don't care for buttermilk to drink, but it's a great addition to many recipes.  This pie is DELICIOUS!!  Geneva says it's a very old recipe - one that she's been making herself over 50 years and that it was "old" when she got it!  She also says there is a "story" about the pie she's going to tell me.  I can't wait to hear it!
