Most of my working life has been spent in libraries, but in my younger days I trained and worked as a nurse. Now I have given up paid employment to cultivate the art of not working, and save my life at the same time. Life isn't always easy, but it's what we've got. Carpe diem!

It's asparagus season!

Hurrah, two of my favourite things are becoming plentiful and cheap, asparagus and avocados. I hear that avocado growers are expecting a bumper crop this year, good news.
I shall be indulging in my favourite breakfast as often as possible. Asparagus, poached eggs, and bacon. I don't care if my pee smells weird.

Here is a link to a list of the supposed health benefits of asparagus. Some of the comments are entertainingly deranged! Thanks to The Merry for the link.

  4. Our asparagus is over for this season. we got more than ever but we are down to one every now and then. Now that I don't have so much asparagus my pee doesn't smell right. There is a spear laying on the table in the kitchen so maybe I'll go eat it and fix that.

  8. Oh, I do love asparagus. Husband dispises it. The pee part doesn't help matters... But I still see how much I can get during the spring!
