 I love hummus. No, I mean I seriously LOVE hummus. So much, that it was one of the main reasons that I signed up for Pinterest: so I could have a dedicated Pinterest board to all the exciting hummus recipes I come across. True story.

All year-round when I visit my grandma and she cooks lunch for me, I can bet she’ll serve me asparagus soup as it’s my favourite (so she freezes a whole bunch when it’s in season to be able to cook it for me whenever I visit). 🙂 My only problem with asparagus is that it’s available for only such a short time. *sighs*

So when I spied big piles of vibrant green asparagus at the farmers’ market I bought 7! (yes, seven) bunches just to stock up on asparagus and even freeze some for later. (Few weeks later I can tell you that sadly (or maybe not so sadly) not one of those 7 bunches ended up in my freezer 😉 ). …
