'Put you off' asparagus?

These alien tentacled monsters make me crave it. I do wish they were edible; imagine slow roasted giant asparagus steaks!
I do hope you feel better soon, Jack.
Thanks Rachel, I think my days of sitting out in the cold at midnight need to come to an end

I didn't have asparagus as a kid, as it was only for rich folks when I was a kid, and we only had a handful of vegetables here

I remember my parents going out for an anniversary meal, and telling me they had 'asparagus tips' like they were talking about caviar

By coincidence, the restaurant they went to was actually in the old home of George Wostenholm at Kenwood Hall in Sheffield
Thanks, Jack!
When I took that photo I was thinking about both you and
Pàdruig
and what a delight it was when the first Guardian's Edition and matching slip arrived. I don't usually carry my knives in a slip, but I've been using this one a bit lately when I carry that knife. I figure, like the knife, it was made to be used, so what better way to honor its maker.
Thank you kindly, Ron!
That's nice Greg, thank you

I really enjoy using the slips,
Pàdruig
did a great job of them
I hope you are feeling better Jack !
Yesterday we were finally able to go say hi to our chickadee friends.
They were not as friendly ( or hungry rather as they were in winter

)
Finally a couple of them decided to be good sports and pose for a pic

( I heard one of them say to the other " hey look, that odd dude with the knives and seeds is back ... what do you say , ... should be fly down for a pic ? )
Thank you very much Dan

Those are wonderful photos my friend

I have noticed that the wildlife here seems to be getting bolder since the lock-down, but currently I mainly have magpies and crows in my garden, and squirrels, and I would not trust them to leave my Lambsfoot in one piece, and not either carry it off to their nests or gnaw the heck out of it!
I'm back from the look-see by one of my Doctors and he said every thing looks good. But
LOOK -
No Feeding Tube !!!!
It's eat on my own or starve from now on.

Fat chance of that happening.

And
Yes, I have pants on.
This post meets all Lambfoot requirements. I'm holding one, Charlie's
@waynorth WCLF is perched on the white coffee cup and a picture of my last evening's post is on my monitor.

The left side of my jaw and face are a bit lopsided but what the heck - They cut the original jaw out and put in another one with a bone from my leg.

Ain't life grand!!
Fantastic news Ed!!

Congratulations, and well done to you and Cindy, and to all the doctors and medical professionals who've brought you back to us, tube-free! You are certainly a fighter my friend, and have put up with your situation with great stoicism and courage. Wishing you happy and healthy days ahead Ed, let the feasting begin!!
Thanks Gary
@Peregrin but it'll mostly have to be soft/softish foods for awhile because they took my bottom teeth but I manage fish, ravioli, hamburger and other things pretty good. It' just a relief to have that tube out of my nose after 90 plus days. I'll be getting some screw-in teeth mid summer I think.
Hopefully plenty of tasty options Ed, and hopefully you'll be chomping away again soon

You sure must be glad to get rid of that tube!
I'm glad to hear that you are still getting some use and enjoyment out of that slip, Greg. My leatherwork has certainly improved since that run - amazing what a bit more knowledge, trial & error, and more tools will will do for you.
...
Low light shot, just getting my evening started. I hope everyone has an excellent evening and an even better weekend!
Great shot pal, hope you have a great weekend too

Certainly nothing shabby about those slips Dylan, I treasure mine
Morning Guardians, thanks for all the well-wishes yesterday, I think I just got too cold, and breathed in too much bad smoke

Great news about
Modoc ED
eh? I know a few of our other Guardians have health problems, and I hope they are doing OK, and will soon be in better health

It hardly seems like the weekend for me at the moment, but I'm sure it still means a lot to those of you who have to leave the house everyday to go out to work, and to those of you still 9-5ing it at home, so I hope you get to put your feet up, and do something enjoyable. Here, the sun seems to be out, and I'm about to go and make coffee. I have a bit of work to do, and some chores in the house to do too, but maybe I'll get out for a bit later, stop my legs seizing up completely

Have a good weekend Guardians, I'm going with stag today
