This wet 'n' wild weather maybe wreaking havoc elsewhere, but here in north London my rhubarb is coming up roses....... let the harvesting begin.....

The big four O used to hail the end of life as we knew it but with 40 being the new 30 where does that leave 50? Clearly, things don't become any clearer and without the option of a blue rinse and sensible shoes, we need to re-write the manual for the jam-making years.
That is early! No sign of mine yet! x
ReplyDeleteIt's certainly a beautifully rosy colour. Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteIt will be 2-3 months before we get any fresh rhubarb around here; enjoy it for me!
ReplyDeleteLove a bit of rhubarb crumble, but yes, this is very early! Is that a Eurythmics song I hear? Well if it's an old fart's musical reference, I would get it, wouldn't I? Not been raining here today, hurray! xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat's all the rhubarb, Bub!?

I wonder if I could grow rhubarb in Florida? It's such a beautiful vegetable. And tastes so good baked into a pie with strawberries.
ReplyDeleteMmmmm rhubarb. Strawberry rhubarb pie. Yes, please. Her was good, wasn't it? Sweet and scary.
ReplyDeleteThey had a "Rhubarb Festival" in Wakefield near me last weekend - Wakefield sits in "The Rhubarb Triangle" in West Yorkshire and makes the most of this very tasty treat! xxxx
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWe love rhubarb and really miss it here in Hungary where it seems to be rarer than Dodo eggs. Yours look wonderful. All pink and juicy no doubt. Oh what delights it can be transformed into.........is there room for two at your dining table?
We keep hearing about 'Her' and might well give it a go. It will, no doubt, take an age to arrive on the cinema screens here!
I always like the American idea of rhubarb and strawberries, unknown here but a wonderful combination.
ReplyDeleteMr TNMA took me to see Her on Valentine's Day - I think he was trying to tell me something!
ReplyDeleteNo shoots here yet, although it has only just stopped raining and snow forecast for the weekend.
ReplyDeleteAs a kid, we would eat the rhubarb dipped in sugar from a little home made paper cone.
Arriving on the 17th of March until the 19th and then coming back to London on the 3rd for 3 days. How do I get in touch with you?
Ah, I wish I knew how to cook it - I know it's quiet simple, but it turned out to be very complicated for me... :) Don't you just love the first signs of spring, though?! So wonderful. x
ReplyDeleteYou can always chuck a bit up here if you've got a glut. I love the stuff.
ReplyDeleteNatalia -- have a look for rhubarb crumble recipes. You will be a changed woman.
There's nothing like a bit of rhubarb crumble when it's raining and cold outside !!
ReplyDelete…….. but, hasn't it been lovely over the last few days ….. I can smell Spring in the air. XXXX
Pie?
ReplyDeletemmm rhubarb crumble... I nearly have enough for one! Julie x
ReplyDeleteObsessed with rhubarb, I go through all my mother's patch when I get back to NZ, though hubstar reckons its hard to grow. $40 a pound here at one stage
ReplyDeleteRhubarb is really good as a laxative.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Ah, early rhubarb is beautiful! Mine isn't showing any sign of doing anything yet, wonder if it is still alive! I realised I haven't checked lately...
ReplyDeleteOff topic, but you were so right about Louis CK! Thank you. I caught him on SNL
