tarte au citron

ok, so today i am making tarte au citron, with a mix purchased at the bon marche in paris........i would have prepared it before now had i quite understood that i would have to make my own tarte shell....pate brissee or some other pie dough....so today i remembered to bring home a frozen pie dough sheet (purchased by the case of 24......) and we will have lemon tarte as dessert for my mother's birthday this evening.......we are having pizza.......grandma is ordering it in......because nothing else sounded good her to......she likes hawaiian pizza with ham and pineapple......i hope that we get one without ham and p.a........for the rest of us........pizza delivery is as rare around here as chinese takeout......but there was not a scrap leftover from lunch.......and mother thought that 'the children' might like pizza.....which means she wanted pizza......but that is her perogative.......when you get over the age of 75.........you tend to get your way more often than not...............wish me luck on this tarte, as i do not actually read french....and i am hoping that the picture directions on the back are all there is to this........
