Thanksgiving is a cherished time for family gatherings in Canada.

I made mini pies with the first harvest of rhubarb I’ve had since a friend of mine gave me a rhubarb plant to share three years ago. I love this sweet and sour rhubarb pie. I love watching the rhubarb grow each summer, and it’s fun to imagine what kind of pie I’ll make next […]
