    Here's a delightful way to enjoy summertime fruits. If you're short on one of the berries, just make up the amount with one of the other fruits in the pie. �Elaine Moody, Clever, Missouri *Test Kitchen Approved

    Ingredients:
    � 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    � 1/4 teaspoon salt
    � 1 cup cold stick margarine or butter, cubed (Imperial or Blue Bonnet)
    � 6 to 8 tablespoons ice water

    � FILLING:
    � 1 cup sugar
    � 1/4 cup cornstarch
    � Dash salt
    � 1/3 cup water
    � 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional
    � 1 cup fresh blueberries
    � 1 cup fresh raspberries
    � 1 cup halved fresh strawberries
    � 3/4 cup fresh blackberries
    � 1 tablespoon lemon juice
    � 2 tablespoons stick margarine or butter (Imperial or Blue Bonnet)

    Directions:
    1. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt; cut in margarine until crumbly. Gradually add ice water, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Divide dough into two portions so that one is slightly larger than the other. Shape each into a disk; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour or overnight.

    2. For filling, in a large saucepan, whisk sugar, cornstarch, salt, water and, if desired, cinnamon until smooth; add blueberries. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until thickened. Cool slightly.

    3. Preheat oven to 400�. Gently fold raspberries, strawberries, blackberries and lemon juice into blueberry mixture. On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger portion of dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate. Add filling; dot with margarine.

    4. Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; cut into 1/2-in.-wide strips. Arrange over filling in a lattice pattern. Trim and seal strips to edge of bottom pastry; flute edge. Bake 10 minutes.

    5. Reduce oven setting to 350�; bake 45-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.
