You guys. .  it’s April 1st?! We’re officially in spring. .  woot woot!!! And April 1st is my wedding anniversary so happy anniversary to me and Paul! (and no, I am not joking). 

Spring, for me, means two things: in-season yummy spring vegetables and spring cleaning.  And I’m excited about both.

I blanch them, sauté them, roast them, bake them. .  and yesterday, these babies were literally my dinner. Like, this was all I ate. Because I ate almost the entire bunch.

For dinner. Because they were soooo good.

Have you guys ever roasted asparagus with lemon zest? This was my first time doing it and now I’m wondering what the hell took me so long. I got the idea from my friend, Jen, who always squeezes a little fresh lemon juice over her veggies when she roasts them. I usually just use extra virgin olive oil and kosher salt, and no pepper if it’s for the kids.

The lemon zest is magical.

Magical! and delicious.

Easter is on Sunday and I’m making this again, only this time, I’m roasting 2 lbs. of asparagus. One pound for me and one for everyone else.

I love this time of the year ..  the weather is gorgeous, the sun is out and kids are actually playing outside. It’s also just a few months before summer so we try to tidy up and get organized around the house. I started with OXO Compost Bin

Can I tell you how excited I am for this OXO Good Grips Expandable Utensil Organizer

I love how large it is and the adjustable dividers help you organize more utensils in less space by allowing them to fit in opposite directions in one compartment. You can also adjust the location of the dividers to accommodate utensils of different shapes and sizes, or remove the dividers completely for open compartments.

Completely customizable! I love it!
