Rhubarb and Strawberry Crumble...

Growing up in Sutton, I have fond memories of going out and picking fresh rhubarb from the garden, mostly I remember the massive leaves but I do remember going to pick it up for Mum.  So I was excited to see a recipe for a pork sandwich that used rhubarb jam as a topping and had been eager to try it...this week I finally had the perfect opportunity to add it to the meal plan, in addition strawberries were on sale so I picked up some extra stalks, this then turned into a crumble.  Isabel helped by adding ingredients into the bowl and then did a great job rubbing in the butter...and I mean a great job.  She is so good in the kitchen and I mean good, they both know to not touch knives, often put ingredients into bowls and I've often had her add spices etc to the meals.  Now if only I can get her to actually eat more veggies everything will be perfect!

Oh and farewell to one of my RR bubble and browns...it had a cracked handle and really fell apart last night.  Guess we will be looking to get a replacement /sigh.
