'Rooo-bub' pie

An extraordinary thing happened on Friday - we discovered the most amazingly vibrant rhubarb patch in our friend's dooryard! (click here for more on 'dooryards') It was just begging me to rip it out of the ground and make pie. So, naturally...

I made pie! Two, in fact.







The lucky recipients of the above mentioned pie. Yum! Yum!
Here's Gram's rhubarb pie recipe:

(for TWO pies)
4 cups cut rhubarb (heaping right over+) for each pie
3 eggs
2 heaping Ts flour
3 c sugar
2 heaping t cinnamon
1 heaping t nutmeg

Make the filling and let it set while you mix and roll out pie crusts. Bake at 350*F for about an hour. To slightly brown crusts, drizzle top crust with a little milk. Make sure to cut slits in the top crust to let the steam out! ENJOY with vanilla ice cream. Superb!
