Warm the butter in the microwave until it is soft, but not melted.

Mix in a large bowl:

I teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

Then cut in using the dough blender:

6 tablespoons butter

6 tablespoons shortening

6 to 8 tablespoons ice water

Wrap your pie crust in plastic wrap. Then place in refrigerator for 20 or more minutes, while you make the PIE FILLING.

3/4 c. sugar

3 tbsp. corn starch

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 c. water

4 c. fresh or frozen blueberries
