This week it’s:
National Asparagus Month

I was dubious about eating it but, being one to always try something, I started by nibbling the tip of one spear, and wow! I loved it. I gorged the rest of it down, and wanted more. This was well over 50 years ago, and I can still remember it clearly. I’ve loved asparagus ever since, as there is no other taste like it. May is National Asparagus Month, and
