Balsamic Grilled Asparagus

Balsamic Grilled Asparagus

Hey guys, remember this lil recipe I posted last week for Balsamic Grilled Asparagus?

Well I am *thrilled* outta my mind to share that it came in 2nd place in 7×7’s “Spring It On” Asparagus Recipe Challenge!

Wooo wooooo!!!

Carey Jones took first place with her Asparagus and Fava Leaf Salad with Minted Lemon Vinaigrette — sounds delish and I can’t wait to taste it while it’s featured at Absinthe.

While I didn’t make it onto Executive Chef Jamie Lauren’s menu, I do still go home with my very own KitchenAid Artisan Series Stand Mixer! kitchenaid-mixer

Gahhh!!!! I am so stoked! So many times I’ve pet these longingly at The Cellar in Macy’s. I feel like my life as a home cook is now complete.

Thank you thank you thank you, 7×7 and wonderful judges Linda Carucci, Sara Deseran, and Jamie Lauren! Please send me your address. I want to bake you something.

KitchenAid Stand Mixer, you sexy sleek beast, come to momma!
