Rhubarb - the Mystery Fruit

Leaf or stalk
Chopped up and ready to simmer.



Fruit starting to mush up.
The Lions read the  Junior Journal 44 story, That's the Idea, about gardening and the Zebras read Leaves.  Then we harvested some rhubarb from the school vegie garden; should we eat the leaves or the stalks?  Most people thought the leaves!  We chopped up the stalks with apple and cooked them  with water and sugar on a hot plate in the classroom.  The smell was delicious!  After the fruit had cooled, most people tried a little sample after lunch.
