  2. Zoomie, I am looking forward to finding some baby artichokes. Garlic and olive oil is all you need.

    cookiecrumb, Shame, Shame on you. You knew that would get a rise out of me. In the memory of Chris we forgive you. Asparagus or get of the bus!

  3. Well, I like the A vegetables in alphabetical order, so asparagus comes next!
    We've been roasting asparagus this season. Really good.

  4. Cookiecrumb,I have my corned beef in a plain water bath to purge the salt. Will smoke in the morning. Ms. Goofy, Oscar, Lucy and I will be dancing a jig for the Holiday.

  5. Well shoot, I'm reading this on Saturday and I missed the whole celebration. And now artichokes just don't seem to go with corned beef.

  6. highlandsranchfoodie, We usualy have asparagus with our corned beef. Acturally I have asparagus with everything. Tradition is boiled cabbage. Not all that fond of that. Have an artichoke with your corned beef sandwich next week. Take care.
