rhubarbalicious

this is my little rhubarb < href="http://www.canadianliving.com/food/rustic_rhubarb_tart.php">http://www.canadianliving.com/food/rustic_rhubarb_tart.php
More info than you'd ever want about rhubarb is listed here: http://www.rhubarbinfo.com/ and this tidbit of info is interesting: The term rhubarb has also come to mean a "quarrel" or "heated discussion." This comes from theatrical direction, believe it or not. Stage and movie directors would have actors repeat "rhubarb" and various other phrases over and over to simulate background conversations or mutterings of a surly crowd. I hope you don't have a rhubarb while eating your rhubarb tarte.! You can even make a rhubarb leaf birdbath: http://www.savor-the-rhubarb.com/rhubarb-leaf-birdbath.html I didn't make this one, but would love to do this!
