I'd planned to spend the rest of the weekend at home finishing my spring cleaning, but today was just too nice outside and I dropped everything this afternoon to get in a quick two and a half mile hike over at French Park. I'm glad I did; I heard reedy calls of Gnatcatchers several times and I also heard the first Red-Eyed Vireo and Hermit Thrush of the season. Larkspur and Blue-Eyed Mary were in bloom as well. Unfortunately, French Park seems to be a bit sparse on native wildflowers and heavy in the introduced and problematic Garlic Mustard; there was scads of it blooming on the hillsides. I guess deer don't care much for its flavor.

Lily secret, where did you find asparagus? I looked and didn't see any.
Good luck with the soup! Let us know how it worked for you!
Thistlehair Farms had three packs of asparagus when I got there around 8:30. They didn't last long!
Thanks for sharing the recipe and for providing a valuable resource for those of us trying to find locally produced food!
