I've tried to grow asparagus (using various methods) for nine years now! Obviously it doesn't like this state (and neither do I!). Or maybe it just doesn't like me - I didn't inherit my mom's green thumb.I thought they were only available in the spring. You have to respect a vegetable that take 5 years to flower.
RIGHT?! That makes me love it all the more, because I refuse to pay that much. SO I absolutely stuff myself with it (and strawberries) in the spring, and then let it go until the next springI agree - refuse to eat asparagus frozen, canned or in a jar. Frozen brussels sprouts are okay. (Just bought a small bundle of asparagus today for a recipe I want to make this weekend - $5!! Yikes.)

....asparagus makes your pee stink, and Brussels sprouts are Satan's vegetable...I love them both, fresh preferably. That limits when I can afford to eat them--lol. Asparagus isn't acceptable any other way; Brussels sprouts are okay frozen, but I way prefer fresh.
I don't smell my own pee And Satan and I have an agreement: if he leaves me alone, I eat the Brussels sprouts. It works for both of us.....asparagus makes your pee stink, and Brussels sprouts are Satan's vegetable...
