You must have us confused with some other county. :-) Our winter once-a-month farmer's market is rather lacking in bounty.<BR/><BR/>(And, actually, our weather's been lovely -- we're just far too busy to take advantage of it!)MizDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10143579988879218142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-1143834633098552302006-03-31T11:50:00.000-08:002006-03-31T11:50:00.000-08:00Brett: Aww.

It wasn't too bad, really, but I was getting tired of stewy, casseroly things.<BR/>KathyF: Yes, break it up into florets and splash some oil on, then roast until you can't stand it anymore! Save a couple of teensy extra-roasted bits for croutons.<BR/>Kevin: I will stay tuned! My favorite asparagus recipe is simplicity itself.<BR/>Dagny: If you come back and read this, I'd love to know the name of the farm. Cranky and I are headed that way for R&R shortly.<BR/>Mrs. D: Is it too late to save (freeze, ::gasp::) any local winter bounty? I would think it's too early to plant, what with the terrible weather.cookiecrumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741894180391507513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-1143833054270436092006-03-31T11:24:00.000-08:002006-03-31T11:24:00.000-08:00[HOMER SIMPSON]Mgghgllgrrghhggghhh...

Then you can hit the little "shop" for the fresh picked stuff. My dad has been bugging me about visiting. Now I have a reason.Dagnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454543828633484309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-1143820692819589772006-03-31T07:58:00.000-08:002006-03-31T07:58:00.000-08:00CC,I'm planning an asparagus event in conjunction ...CC,<BR/><BR/>I'm planning an asparagus event in conjunction with Eat Local.

I went to our tiny local farmer's market yesterday and it was half the normal size vendor-wise (I buy my organic produce from a die-hard who is always there). Its interesting how different all the markets are. I haven't been to the Thursday one for a while, but I think it's probably the best.<BR/><BR/>Beautiful photo, BTW!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13416412232636141747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-1143768201734090062006-03-30T17:23:00.000-08:002006-03-30T17:23:00.000-08:00It's asparagus time again.Cool... going to have to...It's asparagus time again.Cool... going to have to drag my old butt to the market on SundayGreghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08255032914854206547noreply@blogger.com
