First Asparagus!!!

Yesterday afternoon, my Cuter and Shorter Half took the Household Canine outside whilst I was sitting at my computer. When she came inside she told me she had a present for me, but I needed to close my eyes and hold out my hand. I was a bit confused, since she'd not had enough time to go somewhere to buy something.

However, I did as she asked, and as soon as the 'present' hit the palm of my hand, I knew what it was! The first asparagus spears had been harvested!

She doesn't particularly care for asparagus, so except for some she will take to the ladies at the Wilber Post Office, it's all mine! Unless, of course, the children come to visit. However, I'd gladly give up my asparagus, if it would entice them to come to see us, bringing our grandchildren!
