This reminds me of the youthful bride who knew nothing about baling and being this time of year, thought she'd surprise her hubby with a rhubarb pie. She picked the rhubarb and didn't realize it should be wiped and cubed. She made the pastry as the cook book directed, got the dough rolled out and pint it in a long loaf pan, with .---some sugar and, topped it with pastry and. put it in the oven at a low temperature. R simmered, .became dry and eventually stuck to the pan. W hen the groom came home, he was greeted with "Oh! honey! Ihave a surprise for you, I made our dinner all myself." The first course tasted fairly good, then came the surprise. She took the rhubarb pie out of the oven. He looked a little surprised, but was a good guy and didn't say, "That's not the way my mother made a rhubarb pie." He received a serving of it on his plate and he chewed and chewed. It was sour but he laboured on. She was also eating hers.. and said, "Isn't it good dear?" "You bet," came the reply. She said, "I took it all out of that new cook book." "That's my girl" said the groom. "It never should have been in there in the first place." Mr. and Mrs. Ed Green of St. Helens spent Monday with Edna and May Boyle.
