Hey Tom! Where are we now, did you say?

Obviously, we're discussing dinner.

Lol. Excellent answer, Tom, right in the spirit of things. Very nice. Very funny, given the flow and content up to the moment.

I'm glad you didn't ask me 'cause I got lost some time ago.
I 'm just wondering if the rain will hurt the rhubarb?.

Would that be a bad thing?

ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC!!! Nothing worse than a year with limited amounts of rhubarb pie.

I made rhubarb wine one year. Not as bad as it sounds Also not something i'll make again. No need to reinvent the wheel. I'll stick with making wine from grapes.

I've heard of folks shoving rhubarb into a pie to accompany strawberries, but only because strawberries by themselves in a pie get too mushy, it's been alleged, but beyond that, I never heard of anybody making use of rhubarb . I've spotted reddish-looking "celery-looking" bundles in the grocery store and assumed they were rhubarb .
Beyond that, I have no experience with the plant. Should I ?

Yes, settles the stomach after a nice second son casserole.

My mothers side of the family loved rhubarb. It can make jelly, jams, and preserves really well. Most folks like it sweet but I always preferred it on the tart side. MMM... MMM... I also like fried hog jowls and mushroom gravy with wild rice, its just as good as squirrels and gravy. Morels are coming if we ever get a spring here in Ne.

Only pie to beat a good strawberry-rhubarb pie for me is a good blueberry pie.

My favorite, too, but only if it is chuck full of actual blueberries, not a lot of goo and jelly-stuff.
