First

We had the first fresh veggies of the year from the garden yesterday. And even more exciting is this is the first time we have had this vegetable from our garden. Any guesses? That's right....ASPARAGUS. I planted it last year in a special bed I built for it in the garden. It takes it at least a year to get established and produce pieces big enough to eat. We got three pieces and they were yummy. Hopefully we will much more in the weeks to come. We are looking forward to the months ahead of gardening and more fresh veggies.

If you get sick of eating that asparagus, you are more than welcome to send it our way. I love it! We had some tonight and Emma (very picky) actually tried it and liked it. She probably won't the next time we have it, but she ate it tonight. :)

Don't forget that your mother-in-law also loves asparagus. Probably my favorite vegetable!
