The warm winds of summer usher in\u00a0a myriad of vibrant fruits and vegetables from our local farms. \u00a0So when I stumbled upon a road side stand the other day, I just had to stop. \u00a0There standing before me were the two most adorable Amish boys doting over a bowl full of freshly picked\u00a0strawberries<\/strong>. \u00a0Laid out in front of them were beautifully presented tomatoes, garlic scapes, cucumbers, lettuce, onions, peas and\u00a0rhubarb<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

When I was a child, we had rhubarb growing in our back yard.\u00a0 To keep the slugs off of it, bowls of beer were placed around the rhubarb, coaxing the slimy little creatures away from our precious vegetable and into the bowl of beer to meet their demise.\u00a0 When the rhubarb grew to maturity with its subtle red hues, my Mother would make rhubarb pies and sometimes strawberry-rhubarb pies.\u00a0 It is the quintessential dessert, sweet, but not too sweet, light, and colorful.<\/p>\n
