Looks like I have black raspberry pie coming up soon!

I found these comments posted by Sentath in response to a question about frozen berry pie posted by (me, actually! forgotten long ago):

Place berries in colander or mesh strainer to thaw, add 1/4 C sugar and toss lightly, we don't want any of the sugar to go through yet. Drizzle with any acidifying agent you may use, berries often do well with a tsp or two of lemon or lime juice. Let this thaw over a bowl or pan till it stops dripping very much. Reduce liquid by half over slow flame (low heat) and cool to room temp before stirring in your thickener of choice (I'm playing with tapioca flour) and mixing the berries back in for baking.

Fresh peach pie coming up! Frozen black raspberry pie coming up! OH MY!!! Sometimes I wish I didn't live alone...........
