What do you eat for the meal AFTER you think you had your last? The way the media and government officials carried on about Hurricane Irene, I assumed Saturday night's fried egg, cheese, and bacon on puff pastry might be my "last meal." This morning, the dozen eggs I laid in in case of power outages (we cook with gas) looked inviting, so I found a baked asparagus omelet recipe in Judith & Evan Jones's THE L.L. BEAN BOOK OF NEW NEW ENGLAND COOKERY (yes, that's two "new"s--they bring "a light contemporary touch to the great traditions of New England cookery"). If I live until spring, through the upcoming "severe" weather that is no doubt to come, I'll try it again with local asparagus. Lovely, whether the spears come from near or far.
