Karen suggested she would like a blueberry pie for Mother's Day. And fortuitously there are fresh blueberries in the stores now. At around the third itsy-bitsy four oz. pack of blueberries, I start to get galled by the accumulating price. Rhubarb, too, has made its spring appearance. I add three stalks to the cart so I can get by with fewer than four containers.
I am confident that a search on the web for blueberry rhubarb pie will be successful (300,000+ Google hits). The winning recipe comes from a rhubarb enthusiasts site: rhubarbinfo.com
Still living with our temporary replacement kitchen, I didn't have the means to roll out my own crust. The Pillsbury pre-made served adequately, although I was rushed for time and did not include the called-for lattice top.
The rhubarb concept was met with skepticism, but no one refused their slice. Not being a berry fan, I found the combination to be very nice. Good pie.
