A grey wet day here again today, brightened on our walk to the shop by early flowering camellias in a garden down the lane. Then a lunch of orange red soup, the last of our butternut and tomato, from the freezer. Plus an early picking of forced rhubarb, which cooks down into an outrageous pink. Enough to bring some cheer to even the most dismal of days.
yummy – and definitely a dismal day- alternating snow and rain here.
Have you got lying snow still? I hope the gloom lifts soon.
Gorgeous colours! Wish I’d forced some rhubarb.
I guess you are back in grey old England by now – welcome home! At least you have some colourful memories to cherish
Loved these pictures.
They don’t taste too bad either!
I love that ‘outrageous’ pink.
Yes, hard to say what makes this particular pink “outrageous”, but rhubarb is just unashamedly flamboyant for such a humble fruit/vegetable.
