Rhubarb Pecan Muffins image

I usually make these for breakfast and as a coffee-time snack. I also like using my rhubarb for pies and sauces. My husband and I-we have five children and eight grandchildren-are retired after 50 years of farming. We live simply, relying on our garden. I must be working...we're in our 70's
