Domestic goddess??  I wish.

I think the quality of the rhubarb was more to do with the horse manure I put on at the end of last year.

I'm sure mine is ready for picking.  Rhubarb crumble to keep OH happy and some rhubarb and ginger jam, methinks.   :yum:

Yummy, love the stuff but now buy tinned  :o

So funny how Rhubarb is "In" and Expensive, whereas it used to be common and free!! I absolutely love Rhubarb but you (well I) need loads of sugar on it...we used to have a stick to dip in sugar as kids...never been able to grow any as yet, its dies a death in my hands in every garden I have had...may try again now we have a big empty space from tree felling...

I worked in catering and my college is now a psychology teacher but as we both had young children we waitress-ed and did food prep for the posh bods in a multi national company...anyway, she brought in some Rhubarb and put it on a counter with the following rhyme


Whats Long and thin
Covered in skin
Pink in parts and
Shoved in Tarts?

 :-[
It did not go down too well but the chef took the stuff in the end!!!!
