After Andy took a kitty bath…

…he stopped by the ottoman.

He was tentative, not certain about his next step.

Oh yeah! It’s a bit warm in the apartment today and Andy chose a spot by the fan to cool off!

Andy probably stops by the shower because it is cooler than other places in the apartment on warm days outside. Yeah, it was 86 degrees F/30 degrees C inside today, so I had to address the heat issue for my comfort, too.

The asparagus comes from Peru. I didn’t even check the price because asparagus is one of my very favorite foods, especially covered in a cheese sauce with chopped hard-boiled eggs on toast.

I got the egg-to-cheese sauce ratio a bit off this time, but it still was yummy! I tried breaking the stalks into bite-sized pieces this time instead of steaming asparagus stalks whole. I think I like it better this way for ease of eating, though whole stalks make a better presentation. 

Is it just me or can you see a kitty cat with green front paws and whole wheat bread ears and hind legs in this photo? Whew! I need to get out more!

I wonder why we eat “Spargel” in a green state in the USA and Germans go for it in a white form. If you are unaware of white asparagus, here’s some information:

What Is White Asparagus? (eatingwell.com)

If you live in countries other than Germany or the USA, do you eat asparagus and which kind? White does require a special growing technique, making it typically scarcer and more expensive than green, but the white asparagus is very yummy, too, a bit sweeter.
