Asparagus is the most meh of vegetables. Other veggies, I like or dislike. Asparagus I'm completely indifferent to. I'll eat it if it's put in front of me, but I can't work up a dredge of enthusiasm. I'd say it's the rice cake of vegetables, except I like rice cakes.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All you asparagus haters are crazy with a capital crazy. It's got a short season, but when it's in, it's the tastiest thing around.

Punishingly Intricate

Heck yeah! And, like you said, so so good roasted with a little olive oil and salt. yum. My mom became allergic to asparagus when she was in her 40s. It's so sad! They were her favorite veggie.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Hmmm. I could try soy sauce. I didn't think about that!
Okay. Sweet potatoes, edamame, cauliflower, greens with soy sauce. That should be good to be going on with.
Thanks!

What is even happening?
Olive oil and garlic is good too, Teppy. I guess if your tongue looks okay, it isn't a fungal thing or an infection, but I'm still wondering, a little.

Up with the sun
Steph, what about green beans? You can steam them and toss them with soy sauce and a little sesame oil, and it is yummy. But I agree with Cindy that the sore tongue thing is a little worrisome, especially if it's been going on for several weeks. Have you asked your doctor?
vw, congrats on the grade, and the nice email!
