The UPS man rang our bell and 2 birthday boxes arrived. We were so excited. The one on top was from my sister Marla - RHUBARB! We began making dumplings immediately!


As you can see the trip from Utah did not harm the rhubarb. Ed cut it up with very little waste.


Make the pie dough: 1 Pound Margarine, 8 oz. Cream Cheese, 4 cups flour. Mix well and then roll into little circles.


Put a hand full of rhubarb in the center and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.


Fold over.


Place upside down in a 9x13 baking dish.


Fill the pan and gently press the dumplings to level out.


The syrup is about 1 1/2 cups water, 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 4 T Margarine. Bring to a boil and pour over the dumplings.


Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. You can eat them hot, warm, or cold. Delicious.


Add a little ice cream.


Happy Birthday, Joyce.


We had enough rhubarb left over for a rhubarb custard pie. Thanks again, Marla.

Those dumplings look delicious! I had forgotten that your birthday was in Oct as well as Aunt Marla's. Hope you had a great day! Our Emma is growing up so fast...she is nearly potty trained now and has kind of mastered "pooping in the potty." Being grandma is fun!

Love, Loriann & family
