your joking right. I have memories of sitting at the dinner table after everyone is finished and my mother telling me "your not moving till you eat that asparagas" That is practically the only veggie that I hate.

This week I've served it 1) steamed with hollandaise sauce, fresh squeezed lemon juice and melted butter on the side 2) in a pasta dish with smoked mozzarella and prosciutto and 3) in an omelet with bacon and dill.

It's on tonight's menu as well. Maybe raw with a light dip. Mmmmmm.
