Happy Weekend!
It's Cinco de Mayo AND Kentucky Derby day, altogether today in 2018. And we have one gorgeous day in the forecast here for Minnesota. We're looking at 80 degrees today and in the 70's all of next week, yay! It was so good to FINALLY see crocus and daffodils in bloom in our yard and neighborhood this past week.
My Favorite Things this week... Last May I traveled to Oceana County, Michigan for their asparagus harvest. Did you know that Michigan is the asparagus capital of the world?! I found the whole process of raising asparagus fascinating, you can read about it here. While I was there, I spent some time in the kitchen with Gina Ferwerda. She made the most delicious asparagus guacamole! Her first cookbook was just released, celebrating meals from her beloved Michigan, and she sent me a copy - it's been my bedtime reading this week. I can't wait to get in the kitchen with it! Be sure to heck it out (link here)!
Thank you so much for joining me here each week, for reading the blog, and for following along on social media. I am so grateful for your company.
Have an awesome weekend!
