    Cook fruit in water until tender. Drain and mix with
    sugar and margarine. Mash well. Refrigerate overnight if
    possible. Roll out homemade piecrust dough and cut into
    saucer-sized circles.

    Spoon fruit onto circles and fold over into crescent
    shapes, then close the edges completely with a fork. Fry
    until golden brown. Place fried pies on paper towels to
    absorb excess oil.

    VARIATIONS: For baked pies, place crescents on a
    lightly-greased baking sheet in a 400 degree oven until
    golden brown.

    For apple pies, use dried apples and add apple pie spice
    (or nutmeg and cinnamon) and vanilla to taste.

    For prune pies, use dry, pitted prunes and add vanilla
    to taste.

    HOMEMADE PIE CRUST: Place the flour and a dash of salt
    in a mixing bowl. Add the shortening and cut it in with
    a pastry blender or use your hands, as I do. Add the
    water, a teaspoon at a time, kneading until the dough is
    smooth.
