I bought asparagus at the Farmer's market on Sunday that I need to cook tonight or tomorrow. How should I make it?
Roll it in olive oil, season it with salt and pepper, and then roast it until done, but not floppy. (400?) Melt half a stick of butter, add a lemon's worth of juice, and then add toasted, skinned, chopped hazelnuts. Pour this over the roasted asparagus. Serve.
Roasted asparagus!
Flat pan, drizzle asparagus with some extra-virgin olive oil, sprinkle with some course salt & bit of pepper, toss into the oven.
YUM!
Ooh, that does both of those sound good.
I grilled asparagus last night after marinating them in olive oil and lemon juice for 1/2 hour.
Those sound excellent, and I'm not even a huge fan of asparagus. Of course, there's not a lot that doesn't sound good when doused in lemon and butter.

Holy yum.
You can also steam them and eat them with mayonnaise. If you're the kind of person who likes mayo.

Raisins.
Those Herzog stories always amaze me. I don't know how the guy who made Stroszek has become this unflappable humanist saint.
Not to mention the guy who several times was a half step away from killing or being killed by Klaus Kinski (or the man who put everyone through what he put them through for FITZCARRALDO, including those of us who've tried to watch the movie).
Any of the above, and then call Betsy's employer's cafeteria staff to let them know how it affected your pee.

Peppermint sticks. Also, milk of any kind.
