I for got to mention I am picking rhubarb as well, that cake looks good LGi shall have to find a recipe for one, I did a rhubarb, apple, and strawberry crumble two weeks ago, I have made rhubarb an ginger jam in the past.
Mixed peppery Sarah raven's salad cropped all winter.madre rhubarb crumble for my eldest son ( long term disabled so visit allowed,) nipped to see both sons while dog having teeth cleaning. Remembered the crumble..... sitting in the kitchen!
@Plashing It's the best one I've found. Especially good warm!
Dan Pearson posted a recipe for rhubarb curd recently which looks and sounds gorgeous, but possibly too much hassle... http://digdelve.com/rhubarb-curd/

We've finished all our cavolo nero and purple sprouting now but I have baby PSG already germinating for the next lot. We've had our first spears from the asparagus but they're just young so we need to wait till next year for more of those.
Tonight we've had our first broad beans of the season. Very tender and tasty.
The slugs got my oak leaf lettuce and, for some reason I don't understand, yet another sage plant has curled up - record time for this one - but the rosemary, thymes, savoury, fennel and parsley are all doing well.
Don't know why but I never think to sow radishes. I shall give them a try.
