Hi Shawn,


 RH> Looks good, this is about the time of year when fresh rhubarb is
 RH> available. My dad used to keep a patch of it in his garden and every
 RH> year about this time, mom would make pie.

 SH> I love rhubarb pie, Andrea hates pastry.  I don't often make it
 SH> anymore for that reason... I did get some rhubarb from a friend so I
 SH> chucked it in the freezer for now and one day I'll make a pie have a
 SH> slice and if
 SH> my kid won't take the rest I'll chuck it.

Other alternative is to cut it into slices, individually wrap and freeze
them. Then, every time you want pie, pull out a slice and defrost it.

 SH> That's why I don't make pie often anymore.

I don't make it that often either, but just before I sat down to do
mail, I mixed up the crust for a fresh strawberry pie. It's now chilling
before being rolled out and baked, after baking I'll prep the berries
and thickener while the crust cools.
