I bought asparagus yesterday- the box has 10 plants - hopefully some spring day in 2 years, I will be dining on my own fresh asparagus. We love it and it's $1.89 lb. if we're lucky. Plus it's pretty in the garden.
Another great day going - a bit overcast. Having an issue with starlings all over my yard, They think they own it and I have to swing a towel over my head to chase them (crazy lady at it again).
Thought of blogville as I was headed down to the pantry to get pasta so here I sit~ I'm making the pasta salad mentioned a bit ago. Plumber is to be coming to do a couple things, company is on it's way, S&R coming for dinner.
Who said retirement is boring?!

We planted some asparagus plants last year and it was fun to see them rise again this year all fernlike. Next year........
$1.89 a lb....you are lucky...there
have been days when it has been
$2.99 lb. here...it does average
at around $1.99 lb. which is
highway robbery!!!!!
Can a person harvest the 1st year! Wow, I thought our prices were awful for asp.
We did not realize anything last year, but this year there were a few stalks that were edible and
delicious. We left some to go to seed...the third year is thye charm..
