Stalk Up On Asparagus
Described by the ancient physician Galen as “cleansing and healing,” asparagus is nutrient-dense, a good source of Vitamin C and high in Folic Acid. A temperate climate and rich soil ensure that asparagus tastes the best. Be sure to store asparagus upright in water to keep it fresh and firm.
Asparagus is rich in folic acid, which can help prevent mouth ulcers. It contains NO fat or cholesterol and is a perfect source of Vitamin C. Asparagus is high in asparagine, and amino acid that is helpful for removing salts from the body. This is great for people who suffer from high blood pressure or other heart-related issues. Asparagus is one of the best vegetable sources of riboflavin (Vitamin B2), which helps reduce the frequency of migraine headaches and how long they last in people who suffer from them.

Tiny New York Kitchen Wishes You & Your Family A Very Happy Easter!
This street is not far from my house in Connecticut. I’ve been meaning to stop and take a photo of the sign. Yesterday, I decided that not to put it off any longer, so I stopped and snapped some photos of it.
We welcome the first day of spring with open arms, even IF we are supposed to get snow this evening and tomorrow here in the northeast. Happy First Day Of Spring & Happy Palm Sunday! Have a wonderful day. Blessings on you and your families.
I typically don’t eat lunch, but today a delicious tuna sandwich on Italian bread sounded delicious.
One of the colorful things about New York City is that there are food carts on nearly every corner.

The weather here in the Northeast has been unbelievably wonderful. It is so nice to have daffodils in my house as a confirmation that spring is around the corner.
