quid, I was going to write you last night, but the cat shut down my computer, and then I realized I had to be up in less than five hours for my birthday showing of ROTS (I'm 22 in 2 hours!) So I just went to bed, sorry.
I will write you later today. We will be moving, hopefully, by mid June. Give it a couple of months. Also, I'll need some time to wade through Church beaurocracy (unless I get called to the RS presidency in my new ward , in which case I'll need slightly less time and be really freaked out.) But I'm enthusiastic, too. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

I can't even imagine what you're doing up so late. I mean, I go to bed in a few minutes. Sheesh! Ya gotta take care of yourself!
But you did send the email. Er, that portion that you wrote, at any rate. I'm patiently waiting for the rest. Posts: 8355 | Registered: Apr 2003

Um. quid, I guess the cat sent the e-mail; I no longer have it. Maybe you could send it back to me? Thanks. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

*dreams of rhubarb sauce on french toast, vanilla icecream, banana-rhubarb pies, and other assorted goodies - Nathan willing, of course*

I will! In fact, I'm going to bake a pie that will be shared with everyone at DallasCon who wants some. But don't fear, Katie will get her fair share. E-mail me how much we owe for shipping, please. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

By the way, I heard this helpful information today on The Writers' Almanac:
Today is the birthday of famed Swedish biologist Carolus Linnaeus, who is famous for instituting the system of Latin botanical names for plants. What isn't so known about him, however, is the fact that he tried to adapt money-making crops to Sweden to augment his country's agricultural output.
He wasn't very successful on most counts; his introduction of cotton, rice, coffee, tea and coconuts crashed and burned. However, one of his efforts took off and revolutionized Swedish agriculture: rhubarb.
So next time you take a bite of a succulent summer pie made of Rheum emodi, think back on everyone's favorite botanical Swede.

I think I'll try the farmers' markets first -- if I ever get to any of them at the right time!

That's a little far. There's one in the close part of Beverly Hills on Sunday mornings too. I just have to figure out if it closes before my daughters' gymnastics class (last one of the year!) is over.

Oh, cool! I was trying to think of one open on Sundays for you, and the only one I knew of was South Pas. But BH is much better. Hope you make it!

YES! It's not the best or the freshest I've ever seen, and they only had the fat, older stalks. But I got some! *dances*

Anybody have a good recipe for cheesecake with rhubarb? Otherwise I'll just make a rhubarb sauce to go with "ordinary" cheesecake.
