They're Here!

I could feel it in the air as I entered Market. Last Tuesday, the day we've been anxiously awaiting arrived ... ASPARAGUS!

I was late and beggars can't be choosers. Ten spears remained, exactly what I needed for a Create Your Own Essen experience to celebrate a 50th birthday. Even if sold out, just knowing there'd be more on Friday would bring sufficient satisfaction to get me through the week.

And what did Friday bring? The story only gets better. To complement the asparagus, I snagged the season's first rhubarb, more of the yummy spinach, North Carolina strawberries, loads of celery, horseradish, potatoes and eggs.

So, now you're thinking, what would one do with all of this stuff? Hmmm, reserve a seat today to find out!
