DH picked the first 3 spears of asparagus today. I got to eat all three raw. They were nice and crunchy. The fact that it has been (and still is) raining for the last couple of days probably helped them.

sprouts are usually cute. like babies. at least until they eat something they shouldn't. or as a plant, spread someplace where they aren't wanted.
i hope the recent rains are making it over that ways? they have been well appreciated here. everything grows so much better with a good rain and it saves me doing it. especially any clay gardens i might be trying to keep at weeding.
one thing nice about having a longer spring season before planting is that i have had more time to get out and weed some areas before they put on heavy overgrowth so i won't have to walk on any of it again until when i selectively harvest or trim it back (to feed the worms and to feed the plants with their own leaves/stems). it looks nicer in bloom when i don't have to walk on it.
i hope your apple tree comes along well. :)
