spring things


Some scenes from our weekend. Nasturtiums for the garden. And lots and lots of asparagus (2 pounds to be exact), which I blanched and served cold with curried mayo. There were also pungent leeks, fresh local spinach, and rhubarb. I love spring things!

Not to be missed:

* Savage Beauty at the Met (opens May 4)
* and a menu fit for royalty

Happy monday!

Yumminess - love the sound of watercress and asparagus tarts from the menu.

Garden looking good - love nasturtiums. Do you have individual plots on the roof, or is it still just a cooperative effort?

The bounty served up in your kitchen sounds far better for the waistline than the Royal menu...and every bit as delicious!
