I made this frosting for about 4 years as the store I shop at didn't stock the boxed pecan coconut frosting mix (for German Choc. Cake) in the box. Now we prefer this frosting for the German Choc. cake mixes. Submitted by: Dawn~in CO~ ***********************

Even someone who is not crazy about rhubarb, Loves this pie!! Submitted by: Dawn~in CO~ ***************** Blueberry-Rhubarb Jam
7 C. chopped rhubarb 1 can blueberry pie filling 4 C. sugar 1 (6 oz) pkg. raspberry Jell-O Boil rhubarb, pie filling, & sugar for 10 mins. Add dry gelatin and mix well to dissolve. Pour into jars. Let stand until cool-cover and store in freezer. Don't forget to keep one in the refrigerator!! I prefer to use a potato masher, and a whisk to break up the rhubarb as it boils. Watch out for the popping bubbles as it boils-Hot,hot,hot!! This recipe is good on toast, bread, buns, french toast, pancakes, & ice cream.

Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie
Combine: 1 1/2 C. sugar 3 T. quick-cooking Tapioca 1/4 teas. ground nutmeg
Add 1 lb. rhubarb, cut in 1/2" pieces ( 3 C.) and 1 C. sliced strawberries. Mix to coat fruit. Let stand for 20 minutes. Meanwhile prepare pastry for 9" lattice -top pie. Line 9" pie plate with pastry. Fill with fruit mixture. Dot with 1 T. butter or margarine. Adjust lattice-top;seal. Bake in a hot oven (400 degrees) for 35-40 minutes. Personal notes: I always add about 1 extra C. of strawberries, so therefore I use heaping T.'s of Tapioca. I also use a deep dish pie plate and never do the lattice-top, just a vented top crust.
