“Let there be
seasons,” said the
poet Anne Sexton,
“so that our tongues
will be rich in
asparagus and
limes.” We couldn’t
agree more and,
happily, asparagus
is now in season.
It ’s perfect for any
occasion, from a
light snack to an
indulgent breakfast,
such as asparagus
wrapped in Parma
ham and served with
soft-boiled eggs and
toast. Sound good?

on some delicious,
locally grown
asparagus
