Rhubarb experiment part 2!!!

[barbara-thesillygoose]

A rhubarb experiment: I dream of a winter spiced rhubarb dessert, so I made a rhubarb pie with gingerbread spiced pecan frangipane. It’s not quite there yet but the dream isn’t dead yet 🫡

“Haha remember when murder-hornets were gonna be a thing? What a nothingburger.”

Yes, because the Washington state government activated like a sleeper-cell and ruthlessly, systematically hunted them down and annihilated them.

“Y2K came to nothing amirite?”

Yes because an army of software engineers working around the clock, losing sleep, and busting ass till the last minute prevented it from happening.

“Remember the hole in the ozone layer?”

You mean the one that was fixed through rigorous world wide government action?

One of the root problems of our society is a refusal or inability by media to articulate that all those “it’s gonna be an apocalypse” disasters were not disasters because we collectively did something about them.

The good news is this is actually quite correctable. I maintain my firm belief that we as humans are capable of solving almost all of our problems, when we decide to do so.

And I still think that’s going to happen. I don’t know when or how, but I do know that abandoning hope won’t help bring it about.

And I refuse to let the cynics own a chunk of my heart.

I did a chocolate chip cookie taste test with 20 different judges (not including myself). There were 8 different cookie recipes: 6 from 2 different cookbooks, 1 from a food blog, and one from the back of the chocolate chip bag. Things I learned: people are much more CCC purist than I expected; unique flours are NOT well liked unfortunately; assigning your friends cookie homework is very fun. I did in fact make figures and a full 20-slide presentation lol
