When will you have it ready? I'll be over for a slice.....I'll bring the whipped cream.

Sorry, my rhubarb has had a problem and isn't growing well this year.   Probably global climate change... or something.   

But even you could make this recipe...

2nd year in a row that my Rhubarb is seeding out..... 

[delcecchi]

It's funny, I had two rhubarb plants, one that seeded first thing, and another that didn't until much later.   The latter one up and almost died, either last fall or this past winter.
