Mixed Berry Galette with Foolproof Pastry

I am a medically retired RN after spinal fusion and open heart surgeries within two years of each other. After the heart, it was evident that a life style change was needed. My wife and I started following the keto diet, and we have both lost a noticeable amount of weight. Take care of yourself. No one else will do it for you.
