ASPARAGUS



When the moon is in the seventh house
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the age
Of a Asparagus, the age of Asparagus
Asparagus, Asparagus




We have impatiently been waiting for the beginning of the Asparagus season. False rumors, broken promises. and erratic weather have delayed this vegetable from signaling the beginning of spring. This Sunday, rays of  sunshine parted the clouds and illuminated the blue and gold tent of Zuckerman farms. Hallelujah!!!!!!! We filled our market bag with these spears of spring.


This was our first taste of spring. A ciabatta roll from the unknown baker at 'Marin Farmers Market', breakfast sausage from Angelo, farm fresh egg from 'N.Y. Eggs'(Richmond Farmers Market), Zuckerman farms asparagus, bacon from 'Willow Glen Meats' was dressed with a slather of Lowensenf mustard. This was a Chilebrown breakfast roll that would fuel me to the next serving of Asparagus. The next two months we will enjoy asparagus to the fullest. I am HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Sadly, I am about 45-50 days from picking asparagus fresh from our garden. I can't wait. I live it raw, right out of the garden. Nice and sugar sweet...

  7. I got the worst asparagus last week, half of the bundle was slimy tipped. I could barely get two servings out of it. Can't wait until the real fresh stuff gets here. We're a few weeks away still.

  9. I saw the whole exchange. No matter what you think Holder is hiding Goober was wrong and illogical, and enede up making a fool of himself. Bachmann sets the pace for these half-wits. To get more info just check out plagiarism detect.
