I am certainly having trouble getting back into the swing of things post vacation, post cold, etc…
This week’s baking assignment for Tuesdays with Dorie called for rhubarb which I was unable to find, we went to three grocery stores. I ended up just using sliced strawberries. We actually thought this cake was pretty plain so maybe the rhubarb was key. I may try making again when we find the elusive rhubarb.
To see what others thought head over to Tuesdays with Dorie.
I am sure after such a fabulous trip it would be hard to get back into your routine. Hope it was a blast. So funny about the rhubarb…finally found it at pavilions 🤷♀️. I am not sure you needed it but probably needed more fruit in general. Mine was piled high before the baking…couldn’t see any of the batter. I thought it seemed like too much but I think it is needed to have enough when it reduces down in the baking. That might help in case you try this one again. Hope you feel better soon.

I like how you sliced the strawberries. Our local strawberry season has ended, so I used other fruits.

It’s always an adjustment to get back to the home routine after a vacation. The fact that you bake this cake, kudo to you. I haven’t seen rhubarb until yesterday, the season hasn’t quite gotten here yet. I agree that flavor-wise, the cake is rather plain. You got colors!

I’m glad you are feeling better. I found rhubarb (I have a great local supermarket) but it was very expensive. I had a couple of plants at my previous home. I think it’s time to plant some…
