Rhubarb


This is my 2nd spring in a house with no rhubarb plants. I am starting to think that I should plant one (or dig one up from my Step MIL's) so that I can make my single rhubarb recipe each year. I love rhubarb, but in moderation.

Last night said Step-MIL cut me a bunch of her rhubarb (so early for Duluth! We've had a heck of a spring!) and today I'm going to make something.....
pie? Martha's Rhubarb Upside Down cake?

Muffins? Crisp?


Mmmmm, the possibilities are endless....

I vote for crisp. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

I'm a crisp fan too. And when we move to our next house I am planting rhubarb.

I have NEVER lived in a house with rhubarb. It's such a source of sadness for me - especially when I have to pay for it.

Last week we bought some at the farmer's market. I just made rhubarb sauce for our toast & ice cream - yum! (and yes, it was a Martha recipe)

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.

Privacy, please!

Well, the time has come. After 6 1/2 years (!?) Naturally Optimistic will be going private at the start of the new year. If you are interested in still reading my INCREDIBLY exciting posts & commenting on my cute children, email me & I will put you on the invite list. Like I said - it won't happen for another couple weeks, but there ya go. Time to make a change. I'm kind of sad because I've met some cool people - randomly - by having this blog....but the phase of putting all my stuff out there for everyone to read is over. Thanks!
