STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE

I have to hurry with this post this morning.  Our electric is going to be shut off until 3:00PM today.  AGAIN!  I am really getting tired of this.  It seems they do it every few months.  I wish they would fix whatever it is that needs fixing.

I am making one of our favorite pies today.  Now that Strawberries are at their peak and Rhubarb is plentiful it is one of the most delicious pies ever to make and enjoy.  If you have never had this treat, make it soon.  It will become one of your very favorites.

STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE

2 cups of Rhubarb cut into 1/2" pieces
2 cups of ripe fresh Strawberries cut in 1/2 or in 1/4's if very large
1/1/4 cups of sugar mixed with 1/4 cup of flour
2 tablespoons of butter
Your favorite pie crust

Put the berries and rhubarb into a large bowl and add the flour mixture.  Mix well.  Pour into the pie crust and dot with the butter.  Top with the second crust and crimp the edges.  You can also make the top crust into a lattice.  Cut a few slits in the crust to allow steam to escape.  Brush the crust with a little milk and sprinkle with sugar.  This will give you a brown crisp top crust.  Bake at 424 degrees for about 45 minutes or until bubbling.  Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.  So yummy!

Thanks for stopping in today
