I have been looking for a recipe just like this one. I`ll be making it to take to a bbq tomorrow. I`ll let you know how it turns out.

So you live in Thompson Falls? I have been camping with my family on Thompson River Road numerous times when I was a teenager. Hubby and I now live in Eureka.

Thanks for the recipe.

My husband love strawberry rhubarb pie, its his favorite thing ever. When I saw this recipe I knew I had to try it. It was so easy to prepared and was so delicious. I cute the recipe in half and then was sorry there wasn't more cake!!! I didn't use a box mix though, I made half a recipe for white cake (I used a taste of home recipe, fruit filled white cake, it was GOOD)
