I do like asparagus a lot, but I have my limits on how frequently I like to eat it.
Anyone ever have kohlrabi? Now that's a good vegetable.

And the mention of the baby garlic shoots reminds me of an incredible lunch I had some winters ago when I skied from Lech, Austria to Zurs for lunch. Big bowl of pasta dressed with baby garlic "pesto". Oh my gott, it was so good I could have eaten a second order except that it would have been gluttony.
