The Tao of planting asparagus to deal w/ disappointment (4 years later)

[fadedrose]

33. I wish I liked asparagus

Am not an "asparagus hater," I just never tried it. What's it taste like? I have a can of asparagus that must be 7-8 years old.

I love your garden adventures. Refreshing. Got any good recipes for either fresh or canned?

It's 27 degrees outside right now. Normally I am out there cleaning out the beds, pruning a bit here and there, but here I sit in my sweatpants drinking hot coffee, and will feel good about reading your post because it's the closest I'll come to gardening today.

Has your conviction been overturned yet? Not fair if it hasn't been when you see what's going on in other places. If it hasn't been, post a link to your OP in an email to the White House. Somebody there reads them who is pretty cool and you might get a response. I sent one telling them I was sick over the TPP thing, and got a nice response from the President (ya, sure) telling me not to worry and that it would be alright, asking for my trust.

I think I love you. (I'm a shade younger than 77, so don't panic)



Edit: I'm sending an email to the WH for you, with this Op as a link. I'm even enjoying the responses to it. Do I have your permission?
