I made this to bring to my son's house and we enjoyed it very much! Berries were quite tart, so I added a little more sugar and it was just right with ice cream on the side!

This is a fantastic blueberry pie and one I will be making for many years to come. I love the addition of the nutmeg. Gave it a nice taste mixed with the cinnamon.
