When someone asks me what my favourite fruit is, I have difficulty answering. Sometimes I think it is wild blueberries. More often I am certain it is peaches. But I think it might actually be rhubarb. Although, I don't think rhubarb is actually a fruit but rather a vegetable. So it might actually be peaches and then I throw rhubarb into the ... what is your favourite vegetable? ... conversation. Actually, the question is probably easier to answer there. While I like all sorts of vegetables, rhubarb would win that contest with very little effort.
Anyway, it is rhubarb season ... yay! And I plucked some from my garden tonight for a crisp. The crop isn't too plentiful yet so I mixed in some strawberries I bought at the grocery store from California or some other non local source. I usually like rhubarb straight up but with strawberries find that I don't need to add much sugar. Regardless, it was excellent. And I have lots left over for breakfasts this week! What? It's fruit (or even better, a vegetable) mixed with oatmeal. Health food!
