FOOD DANCE - ASPARAGUS

      $100.00 plus S&H

I thought I would sort of get lost in all the green, but I didn't and had a good time painting this asparagus.  Although, this series continues to be a lot of fun and challenging, I can feel the end coming soon.  
I decided not to post over the week-ends.  It is good for me to give my computer time a break.  I do however, paint when I can on Saturday and Sunday.  Family takes priority on those days! 
Another recipe from Ina Garten.  This is so very good and so very easy.


Roasted Asparagus
by Ina Garten
Serves 8

2 pounds fresh asparagus
Good olive oil
Kosher salt, plus extra for sprinkling
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp

  2. Who knew asparagus could look so good! And my favorite way to cook it. I've been wondering - are you doing any painting into the background or just leaving the toned part alone?

  3. I'm painting in the background, Lydia. I'm doing that because the first one was painted that way and I want them all to be similar. Would be fun to try a red toned panel. :)
