Strangely Inspired...

I am not sure what happened to me today, but I am not sure I have cooked so much for just anyhow since I was avoiding studying for finals in college. My guess it was either subconsciously avoiding thinking of my upcoming eye surgery and the housework I should be doing or just enjoying the arrival of spring and the first chance to cook up some rhubarb.

I made a batch of egg rolls, baked two blueberry rhubarb pies and cooked up some rhubarb salad all while sipping on someyerba mate - perhaps the reason I didn't peter out in the middle, although the clean up still looms and I am not sure I am going to find the energy to deal with that yet.....


I love rhubarb....

Although, I love blueberries even more, and this pie contains them both ... and yes it is my favorite....

In the oven and ready to bake, can't wait to enjoy!


Finished all that baking off with a glass of fresh squeezed lemonade - a zested lemon doesn't stay moist very long....
