Do You Like Asparagus?

 Part of tonight's dinner will be these asparagus spears fresh from the garden. This is the 3rd pick . All sizes  are okay on mature plants. I have some old plants and some new 2 year old. Mostly Mary Washington variety. My latest easiest way to cook them is lying on their sides  in a Pyrex loaf tin with water half way up them   and knobs of butter. 2


or 3 minutes only!    

                                               *****

 My blue / Purple Dutch irises are out . 3 clumps 

 Her are some lovely flowers; sweet pea and Argentinian pea 
 my friend Helen gave me on Tuesday.

 I love all the Spring flowers appearing, especially the fragrant ones.
