WOW. I can't believe how good this bread is. I thought it was an interesting idea, so I decided to try it out, and I'm glad I did. What a great way to make use of rhubarb. I doubled the recipe and added an over-ripe banana that I had laying around, but other than that followed the recipe to the letter. It was easy to make, and not too time consuming. My husband and I ate almost an entire loaf right out of the oven. We have been eating it plain---no margarine or jam or anything---and it's delicious. Thanks!!!

Very, very good recipe. I chopped my rhubarb pretty fine and it was just perfect. I also used 4 T. of dried buttermilk plus 1 cup of water in lieu of buttermilk. I especially liked how moist this was. Thank you! This fall, when my apples are ready, I am going to try it with tart apples and a bit of cinnamon rather than the rhubarb.

Zaar...Wow, what a place! I'm one of the old timers of Zaar. I can't count the number of wonderful dishes I cooked in the past few years since joining. Along the way I have had the pleasure of meeting several Zaar chefs. Talk about your fruits and nuts! lol. I have enjoyed meeting them all.
Family: What's to say...I have had the same sweet husband forever (Good thing....I'd hate to have to break a new one in...=) and live close to a couple of grown children. (Maybe you've met Smoke Alarm Jr. ..her brown rolls are sooo good!) Therefore, my family gets together often to enjoy each other's company and cooking. My greatest joy is six "little to tallerthanme" kids running around calling me Grammy. They wear me out! lol
For the past thirty years I have been a Special Education teacher for grades 9-12 and love it. Took some time off last year to recovery from surgery, chemotherapy and radiation for breast cancer. (Loved the radiation....I keep imagining that we are absolutely napalming the nasty cancer cells tohellandback to keep the little suckers from returning. =) My prognosis is good and now "I'm back in the saddle again". lol. Being a north country "gurl", I am happiest outside...walking, fishing, sitting in front of an outdoor fire or being on water (although in February it's a bit stiff....=0) When indoors I like to read, garden, knit, quilt and paint. During cold Maine weather I like to warm my feet on a very large ( 100 pounds of long legs and huge feet), sweet and furry golden retriever named Kerry (aka KTBRD: Kerry the big red dawg..lol) . In the summer, the dawg and I round up the grandkids, hit the local dairy bar for a Mounds Sundae that is to die for!!!=0) . Then spend a lot of long and lazy summer days at camp . All in all...Boy, Life is good! =)
