Rhubarb cake

Cream 1.5 C brown sugar & 1/2 C shortening
Add an egg
Sift 1 t soda and 2C flour, blend into the creamed ingredients
Add 1C sour milk, 1 T vanilla and 1.5 C rhubarb chopped

Pour into large cake pan - I use a rectangle glass one

Top with 1/2 C sugar mixed with 1T cinnamon (I actually use half of this amount of each)

Bake 45 min at 350

It looks like I copied this recipe a long time ago from one of my mom's cookbooks so I would guess it can be considered to be an "Old New England" recipe!!

For sour milk - put a T lemon juice in measuring cup and fill the rest of the way with milk
