    Asparagus eggs benedict is really good: you substitute the asparagus for the ham. Yum!

    With 5" of new snow over night????? The calendar might say it's Spring, but I think Mother Nature has other ideas. It won't be around long tho - temps back up in the 50's in a couple of days. I'm looking forward to the fresh rhubarb and strawberries that will be in season fairly soon.

    I bought a pint of strawberries the other day from Florida - fun how the season works its way up the coast!

    A few days ago I say bunches of asparagi (?) in the store and when I went back yesterday, there were none. But, here in Thursday's we have it in abundance!

    Asparagus omeletes or steamed with a slice of lemon and sprigs of dill! Asparagus Benedict? Yes, we can.
    I also saw strawberries in the store.......rhubarb and SB pie.

    ----------------

    When I got here to KY I was sicker than a dog. I knew I was getting better when I was served half a strawberry on a stack of pancakes. THAT was the best strawberry I had ever had in my life...Everything I ate for the three weeks before I made it here had no taste.....ewww.

    ---------

    I hope everyone has had a respite from the poopy weather we are having!!!!!!

    With that, let me do some refills and I'll give you a hearty DONE!

    Isn't it amazing how good food can fast when one first regains an appetitive and sense of taste?

    By the way, treasure any maple syrup you currently have - the season has been AWFUL so far according to one guy I talked to - last year at this point they had 17,000 gallons of sap collected. This year? Just 300 gallons.

    French toast with maple syrup seems to be in order! With bacon of course, as the food here at Thursday's is calorie free!
