Lately, I've been incredibly in the mood for crusty bread with a generous smear of extra virgin olive oil and tantalizing tomato slices. <br />Alright, back to this wonderful recipe of yours. Just by reading off the list of ingredients...I am 99% positive that it will be baking in my oven very soon ;o)<br />I'm very glad to have discovered your blog. I'll certianly have to be back to roam around.<br />Flavourful wishes, ClaudiaFOODESSAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03875552395027129685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567715590164266982.post-11840755321043801972010-05-23T18:17:51.868-07:002010-05-23T18:17:51.868-07:00Oooo!

Thank you, thank you again for sharing that recipe. We've had it twice. I just picked up more asparagus today--from a "wait a minute and I'll pick it for you" farm. I'm putting up several more batches in the freezer and we'll have some for dinner.
