Tick, tock, tick, tock! No sooner have we rejoiced in the first bright Arthurian-green spears of Asparagus appearing in our kitchens, revelling in the weeks of melted butter and grated Coolea which stretch before us, than the weeks stretch no more. Gone before we have had our fill.   What a gift from The Great Chef in the Sky that these treasures disappear before we are sated, leaving us longing for more and allowing us such joy when they make their long-awaited return. @samaharris
