My husband was quite excited to find rhubarb in the store the other day, because he could then make his favorite dessert...Rhubarb Pie.  I may need to explain to my southern friends that rhubarb is a fruit that looks like celery but is red in color.  It's even stringy like celery but tastes much different.  Whereas celery is very mild in flavor, rhubarb has a bitter/sour taste. 

The recipe below was given to Arlin's mom at her wedding shower in 1961.  It's been a favorite in the family since then. 

Let's get started making it.

You'll need 2 cups of rhubarb cut into fine pieces (1/4 of an inch or smaller).

Add two rounded tablespoons of flour. 

A cup of sugar goes in next.  Mix all ingredients. 

Place mixture in pie shell. 

Pour 3/4 cups of heavy whipping cream over the top.  Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes. 

Cool before serving.  Was that easy, or what?  Darlin Arlin was in heaven eating his favorite pie!
