Asparagus Time Again

I won't even say I lucked out, because this is just how manifestation works, and I've managed to learn how to manifest produce for little to no money. I just spent an hour and a half with one of my daughters, blanching and freezing asparagus for next winter. I had about fifteen pounds of bulk asparagus, and paid just $1.39 per pound for it. In addition to the tips that we froze, we also still have a goodly portion of the harder stalks, which we'll remove just the white part from, cook the green part down, and then puree into cream of asparagus soup. Very little is wasted, and that's a decent amount of food for a small amount of money. You'd think people would catch on to the fact that organic, local produce is worth the effort. Better yet was the kindness of the people who owned the small produce market, who agreed to sell me the random-cut bulk asparagus for such a great price, even though the farmer from whom they are getting their asparagus has disced most of his patches and had only minimal amounts of asparagus to offer this year. They only got the one box of random-cuts, but took it because, as they said, they knew someone would be able to use it.
