With the kitchen remodel in full swing I have not been able to do any canning. Last week, when I had no sink and no real idea of when I would ever have a sink again, I thought about asparagus and panicked. What if I missed asparagus season entirely? Last spring I put up just two jars of Bloody Mary Asparagus to see if we liked it. The answer is YES. So I had big plans to fill many jars this year. A person really does need a working kitchen to can. Before you suggest I move out to the deck with a camp stove, know that the deck was sawing central, sawdust everywhere. No kitchen, plus fleeting asparagus = panic.
All is well. The remodel has moved to the cabinet building stage, asparagus are still in season and Sunday I plan to play with jars. Yeah!
I love Bloody Marys! Spicy ones... I expect asparagus is excellent in them.

Hmm I have never had Bloody Mary's before but asparagus is good. I hope your remodel continues to move swiftly.
