Asparagus, front, back and centre

You just can't beat two bunches of young, fresh asparagus for $5. So I won't. We have had asparagus every day for the past week; lightly steamed with a tiny dab of butter and fresh squeezed lemon juice.

One of the many wonders of the city is that when the produce arrives, the competion allows for some very good prices.

We have made a commitment to eat what comes to the produce shops on sale, as much as we can, until it goes out of season. So right now we are munching on apples, asparagus and eggplant. It is in ongoing mystery what is coming next, but we await with anticipation.
