Sunday...



Upper Barrakka Gardens and the crafts market 'Patches'





Rhubarb is a very common vegetable however for us Maltese or let's say for me it's not. This is botanically classified as a vegetable; however, in the United States a New York court decided in 1947 that since it was used in the United States as a fruit it was to be counted as a fruit for the purposes of regulations and duties. A side effect was a reduction in taxes paid. Interesting.

So I've tried rhubarb muffins and they turned out delicious x
