Astaire & Rogers. Kevin Hart & The Rock. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. It's hard to imagine enjoying rhubarb without strawberries. And yet, rhubarb has been showing up solo and early to the market party so far. Last week, I saw someone eye the rhubarb at the Orchards of Concklin tent and instinctively scan the table for strawberries. When he didn't see any, he walked on and passed on the rhubarb. What a shame! Rhubarb is the Cher of spring market offerings. It can do just fine on its own (Sonny, who?), thank you very much.
