I was without it for the weekend a week or so back, so can totally empathise, but my w/e was not as full and eventful as yours. <br /><br /><br />I made a rhubarb crumble yesterday, and actually found it too too sharp, I am loving the addition of strawberries - so will def. make a variation of this.Shaheenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602971207085826708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-53471618835183893292012-05-09T04:41:53.809+10:002012-05-09T04:41:53.809+10:00I love the ruby red of that crumble.

Still, it sounds like you survived very well and perhaps even benefited from not trying to squeeze the computer-based things in too. It is certainly the case that you excelled with this crumble - so much so that I'm very glad you're back so you can share it with us (as well as for other reasons, of course) :)Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06350144954173714085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-84969723017658851242012-05-08T20:58:51.398+10:002012-05-08T20:58:51.398+10:00So lovely!
