Thistles\u2014in the form of artichokes and cardoons\u2014have been on the human table since at least the days of ancient Greece and Rome. According to Greek myth, the artichoke owes its existence to the philandering Zeus who\u2014on a visit to his brother Poseidon\u2014spotted a gorgeous girl, Cynara, bathing on the beach. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\"><em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">He fell instantly in love, seduced her, made her a goddess, and took her back with him to Mount Olympus. Cynara, however, lonesome and missing her mother, soon took to sneaking home to visit her family.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\"><em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">This duplicitous act so infuriated Zeus that\u2014in a fit of temper worthy of Caravaggio\u2014he tossed Cynara from Olympus and turned her into an artichoke. The modern scientific name for artichoke\u2014Cynara cardunculus\u2014derives from this luckless girl.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<p>While the oven was hot, I decided to roast three bunches of asparagus!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/04\/asparagus-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"633\" height=\"950\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/04\/asparagus-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36945\" srcset=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/04\/asparagus-1.jpg 633w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/04\/asparagus-1-100x150.jpg 100w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/04\/asparagus-1-200x300.jpg 200w, http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/04\/asparagus-1-374x562.jpg 374w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 633px) 100vw, 633px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>I added parmesian cheese and lemon to the results&#8230; wonderful!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Time to go&#8230;where you ask?
