Strawberry Rhubarb crisp = summertime

Strawberry Rhubarb is my favorite flavor for summertime. Yesterday we found some rhubarb at the farmers market and an idea was born.  I couldn't find the recipe I was thinking of but a quick call to my mom and I had a quick recipe for the 'crisp' that she remembered off the top of her head. Because as she put it - "Grandma never had that written down."

For the flour today I used cake flour instead of the all-purpose.  I think this helped make the crisp more like a shortcake.  The combination of strawberries and rhubarb is just how I remembered it to be as a kid but I'm still missing something that was always is Grandma Twink's recipe. But the husband thought it tasted delicious:)
