Spring is here and asparagus is on sale!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Spring is here and we are headed to Paris in a couple of days. Ahhh, Paris in the Spring time. Ohhh, it is still going to be in the 50’s during the day and maybe some rain but that will not dampen our spirits.  Maybe on a rainy day we will just have to duck into a little cafe and spend a little time people watching while enjoying a glass of wine (or two) and some wonderful cheese.<\/p>\n

Seems like just yesterday we were getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. How time flies. What I love about Spring this year is that we are going to be in France with friends. We are spending a week in Paris (staying a couple of blocks from the Louve) and then in Provence (Elygaliers) area for a second week. We are signed up for a cooking class while in Provence (Arles), which I know will be a blast and I wouldn’t be surprised if we cooked some recipe using asparagus and we have a couple of “must get reservations for” restaurants while in Provence.<\/p>\n

Another thing I love about this Spring is that we are getting ready to have our third grandson; and hopefully he won’t arrive until we get back from our trip and then in June we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our fourth grandson. The little Michie boys will definitely carry on the family name.<\/p>\n

I know I will pick up at least one new asparagus dish while in France but until then, I hope you will try this recipe. \"\"<\/a>   \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Use a vegetable peeler to thinly slice the asparagus. Any leftovers, save and throw into some eggs or a pot of soup.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Add in some toasted almonds. At the last minute I decided to add some sesame seeds that I had toasted.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A simple lemon dressing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dressed salad can be served as is or atop some baby spinach.<\/p>\n
