    Strawberry-Rhubarb Compote
    3 cups rhubarb (4 large stalks), trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
    1 pound frozen or fresh strawberries
    6 tablespoons raw (turbinado) sugar
    Pinch salt
    Peel from 1/2 large navel orange
    3 tablespoons rosé wine

    1. Combine all of the ingredients in a medium saucepan and add 1/4 cup water. Set over medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Cook gently, uncovered, for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding more water if the mixture seems too dry. You want the fruit to cook through and soften without completely losing its texture.
    2. Cool and serve over yogurt or ricotta, with ice cream, or on its own.

      Childhood Favorites from the Shine Supper Club

      My after-school snack was a sacred ritual. I sat on the carpet in my parents' bedroom at a low table, the television turned to "I Dream of Jeannie," and ate a peanut butter and honey sandwich cut into neat squares. I wasn't fussy about crusts. I just loved the sticky pairing of creamy peanut butter with syrupy golden sweetness drizzled from a honey bear in diagonals across the soft white bread. Nothing else--save for maybe apples and peanut butter in a pinch--could have made for as sweet an
