But I can't bring non-processed food back... I have to bring all that up at the Border. I'm going to a farmers' market today... That will be in 30 days.

Okay, I'll stick some in the freezer for you first thing in the morning. Next time you come to southern Ontario, swing on by and you'll have all the rhubarb you could ever ask for. $4 per pound?!?!

Didn't happen. Neither did the Rhubarb: it was $4/Lb which strikes me as a bit pricey, although it may have just been the location. It was an idea to visit a parish in townn.

As you say, it's basically a weed, along with the peppermint, spearmint, and catnip we've got growing in the back yard.

My Grandma has it growing in her back yard - in Upstate NY - that's where I developed my love for the stuff. There, it is a weed on the side of the roads (like Fennel is in San Francisco), so common as to be ignored. I’ve not seen any growing… but it is in all the stores.

Rhubarb does not seem to grow in the very northern delta regions. Does it grow in the western Carolinas? If so, I may need to make a trip eastward to have a weekend beer with you and get my fork on some rhubarb pie.
