And of course this thread would not be complete without input from Groucho (which I've used before here)......."If you take cranberries and stew them like prunes, they taste much more like apples than rhubarb does."

And then I have to add one of my Old Man's favorite expressions which he said every time it rained that I can remember!!!! "Do you think the rain will hurt the rhubarb?" To which you had to respond, "Not if it's in cans." It was an interesting childhood.
