.. I hardly use any sugar cooking rhubarb .. chalk yes, sugar hardly

rhubarb contains oxalic acid which dissolves teeth. a bit of chalk while cooking solves that

My recipe has equal amounts of sugar and flour. And porcelain takes rhubarb okay.

.. ... that much sugar? but you'd be eating just sugar???

No, rhubarbs and eggs too.

Most commercial cakes have more sugar than flour, so it doesn't sound tooooo bad

uuhhh..

well ok .. fair enough

2 glasses of flour
2 glasses of sugar
3 glasses of chopped rhubarbs
4 eggs

I think the common belief is that a glass is about 200 ml.

Beat the eggs with sugar, add rhubarbs, add 3/4 of flour. Mix. Add the rest of flour. Bake.

That's for small children, idiots and lazy people. Mostly used when rhubarbs land in the house unexpectedly - usually I have flour, eggs and sugar. Not that usually there's milk or butter or such.

.....small children, idiots and lazy people.... I don't even have rhubarb ..

Oh, neither do I but every now and then it sort of appears on my doorstep.

ah ..

my doorstep seems to be besides the regular rhubarb track ..

Oh dear. Maybe you should visit the local market then or plant one... somewhere.

i baked two spice-s (no, not < >-, although that is also an option) and two pineapple s

the spice-s turned out just fine - as per usual - but the pineapple-s had to go back in the oven. there is definitely something wrong with that recipe!

i fed the pineapple-s to my colleagues today - after telling them that i took no responsibility whatsoever

space ?? oh nice

with all the spices i put into it i might as well have slipped some < > in it too - but it would have been a terrible waste of good

Wasting is not tolerated here.

Waste cake doesn't sound terribly good

.. wasting ... time?? would that be ..???

Sitting on the dock of the bay...

Wasting time is not the same as doing nothing.
