Oh dear

I'm a woman on the edge, Dear Reader.  I will blame Mother Nature.

All day I was planning to write a nice cooking post for you about one of my most favorite vegetables, asparagus.  (Go with me here, this was going to be interesting, I promise.)  I was looking forward to it all day, in fact.  And then, at the eleventh hour (8:15 PM), as I maniacally slammed down the phone on my sister (well, technically she was simultaneously hanging up on me as well) my shallots went from caramelized to CHARRED, sending me quite over the edge of reason and sanity. 

I kind of lost my shit, so to speak.  (My Martha Stewart tea kettle had to cover her ears.)  Those burned shallots were the free sample of eau de toilette that broke the shopper's new handbag, I suppose. 

And so I'm afraid there is no cooking post this evening.  And my husband is walking on eggshells.  And I'm drinking cheap chardonnay out of a Starbucks mug.  And eating freezer burned ice cream cake straight out of the box.

Happy Wednesday!!  xoxo

Actually...I ate the asparagus as well. So I can't make any promises about my pee. :)

Don't you just love asparagus, I implore you not to abandon the post....so as an fyi, I usually pan fry them in a smidge or more of butter or it's low fat alternative...and season w/parsley, onion salt, garlic powder and cracked black pepper. Delish! The pee is just strange.......

That does sound delish!! I will do the asparagus post, just for you. xoxo
