Cooking asparagus tonight. I may grill hamburgers, if the rain doesn't slow I will pan fry the hamburgers the old fashion way. lol
How to cook asparagus!
Snap off the dry ends of the asparagus. 
Okay, this took me a while to understand, since my grandmother didn't grow asparagus in Arkansas. You just grab hold of the asparagus with both hands and snap. It has an automatic snap and will break in half. It can't be any easier than that! 
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet, (I use a flat iron skillet, sorry the southerner comes out) drizzle the asparagus lightly with olive oil and salt.
Cook at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes. 
It depends on the thickness of the stalks, so keep watch.
So easy, enjoy.
Have a great evening.
I will be adding this recipe to Diann's Family Favorites Cooking from Scratch.
