Directions:Pastry Crust: Mix dry ingredients. Cut in butter. Add 5 T of water stir and toss. Squeeze together into a rough ball. Flatten into two disks, wrap in plastic and chill for an hour. Then, roll out one round on a well-floured countertop and line your pie pan. Refrigerate. Filling: Mix sugar and cornstarch together. Pour over rhubarb, strawberries and mix.

Notes: I remember we used to have rhubarb on the farm in Iowa. I LOVE rhubarb pie. (From Garrison Keillor: "One little thing can revive a guy, and that is a piece of rhubarb pie / Serve it up, nice and hot / Maybe things aren't as bad as you thought. Momma's little baby loves rhubarb rhubarb, Be-Bop-A-Re-Bop Rhubarb Pie" — to the tune of "Shortnin' Bread". "Wouldn't this be a great time for a piece of rhubarb pie?")
