Have you ever tasted the sweet essence of air? 

Have you ever felt a refreshing lightness on your tongue that was so delightful, but seemingly without mass or structure?

Have you ever wanted something sweet after a heavy meal, but the dessert choices were too heavy in structure, fat, and/or calories to be comfortable for you at that point?

Rhubarb

Sunday, September 13th, 2020

Rhubarb is THE ONE taste in various forms that I crave all year. The FAKE news for many is that it is a fruit given that it provides distinctive, galactic-extraordinary flavors for desserts. However, Rhubarb grows from the ground and looks like celery, but colored ruby-red at its finest. Hence, it is a vegetable. Unfortunately, Rhubarb is not grown in the South, and in the North it’s availability is primarily limited to April / May.
