Well, we are fully into spring, with the official start of summer just two weeks away. The kids have finished the school year, so they're on "lazy" time already. The garden is planted and I have several other projects waiting in the wings to be completed. It seems that everywhere I turn there's something else that needs my attention......or someone's attention. And......since I seem to be the one so acutely aware of all of these lovely "projects", I feel compelled to think about them constantly. when I have a little free time. :) Sorry, I digress.....
When I think of spring I also think of certain foods..........fava beans being one of them. It's another thing that reminds me of my Italian gramma and her large, thriving garden. So, when springtime comes I start thinking about favas and where I can acquire some. (Maybe I'll try to grow my own next year.) As usual, I'm the lone little Italian lady regularly asking my local supermarket to order all sorts of things (like favas) that, apparently, no one wants but me.
