Photo inspired by a bit of my morning reading - here. These came from our asparagus bed, which grows wider every year. I picked them yesterday, and I plan to pick a few more today and tomorrow, as they become tall enough. Favorite way to cook asparagus? Actually, there are two: either tossed with olive oil, salt and pepper and grilled on our charcoal grill...or sauteed in a pan with a little butter, little lemon juice, salt and pepper. Yum.
i am mucho jealous of your asparagus patch.

Who needs flowers when you have asparagus? Looks beautiful. I wish I had an asparagus patch.

lovely! we enjoyed butter sauteed asparagus last night!
I found you through typepad...I was thinking of switching from blogger, though nothing in my life justifies paying to blog. Do you like typepad?
I'll be back here often, and will probably link to you, because we do love good food!

Hi Rachel,
I started on blogger years ago - back when I knew very little about what I was doing, and blogger didn't have as many creative options as it does now. I really like typepad, which is why I keep paying for it every year. And I've learned a lot from them, through their FAQ sections, about how to create little bits and pieces, like hyperlinks and banners. And, best of all, is when I have a problem, typepad gets back to me very quickly with answers. I have no reason or desire to switch back to anything else. And that concludes my little I (heart) typepad speech. Thanks for stopping by!
