Spargel Season

Three months ago I had a mild panic attack believing that my asparagus patch had given-up the ghost.  

Not so.  As it turned-out that bed continued to deliver fresh asparagus spears on a slow but sure basis for the next 3+ months allowing me the pleasure of fresh spargel a couple of times a week.

Me thinks this has been the last of it.

A couple of days ago I ate the last of this year's harvest along with a pork chop dinner.  

Just so you know, these bone-in, rib chops, from the local butcher shop, set me back $3.17.  A heckuva deal considering the price of groceries nowadays.

Fresh spargel sauteed in EVO and served-up with fresh-cracked pepper and sea salt really amped-up dinnertime. 

Same for baked tater and pan-seared venison, rare to medium rare.  Sauteed shrooms too.

Spargel season is short and sweet; and worth the patience.  Pretty good chow if you can get it.....
