Today\u2019s recycled post revisits a controversy that caused great excitement during it\u2019s first airing in May of 2008. The whole issue is a moot point around here, because it the last three years, the spruce trees around the former asparagus patch won the battle for supremacy. The patch pictured above is no more (insert my happy dance here), and though I graciously suggested starting a new one, Hiram decided against it.<\/p>\n

So, my only reason for broaching the topic is to stir up controversy. I\u2019m curiously waiting to see if my asparagus-loving friends will notice and make rabid comments either here at the blog or on Facebook. Let the fun begin!<\/p>\n

In Pursuit of Truth – Recycled<\/strong><\/p>\n

A certain percentage of this blog\u2019s readers are vegetable activists. If you\u2019ve read their comments in defense of asparagus, you know what I mean. So you may be thinking I took this picture of emergent asparagus in order to curry the favor of this small but very vocal minority. That\u2019s simply not true.<\/p>\n

I took this picture because I figured someday I may write another recipe column about asparagus. Most of the column will be a hoax. The recipe will be tested months in advance with alien asparagus, beamed in from who knows where. And I\u2019ll be lying through my teeth about how delicious asparagus is.\u00a0 The least I can do is use a my own, personal file photo of Iowa grown asparagus.<\/p>\n

Now you know why I was prone on the dewy grass in our yard early yesterday morning, camera in hand. I was not pandering to vegetable activists. I was pursuing truth and justice, at any price.<\/p>\n

And if anyone knows how to get grass stains out of sweat pants, please contact me immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
