I'm very blessed to have volunteer asparagus growing this year. I collect enough for a meal once a week.

We are lucky here in CA. Asparagus flows freely ... as do artichokes and other fabulous veggies.

I was just lamenting this morning that I left two Cara-Cara oranges on my desk at work. Someone stole them both. They are very expensive. One I paid $3.00 for! :o(

Lucky I have a bag of Cara-Caras in the trunk of my car from Trader Joe’s. I’ll let you know how they turn out.

You, sir, are blessed. We’ve seen some young spears this year and, with help from above, we’ll continue to see more next. Their ferns are as pretty as the spears are to taste. Sauted, with a bit of olive oil and lots of garlic is the usual around here. In fact, just had a bunch of them last night (store bought) Just as broccoli is great in Vit K, asparagus is a diuretic. And, supposedly, helps keep one from aging...no found facts on that assumption have been seen :)
