Powerpoint 2010 has a rather robust set of animation options that can really help your slides stand out. But it is very easy to overuse the animation effects to the point where they overwhelm the information you are trying to present, or the information that you are viewing.
Vacuum sealing asparagus is the preferred method of freezing asparagus because it removes the cold air that causes freezer burn, or oxidation and dis-colorization of the spears, which can cause the spears to have an off taste that will spoil the flavor and texture of the asparagus.
1 Place water in the bottom half of a steamer pan set. Add salt and butter, and bring to a boil.  Trim the dry ends off of the asparagus. If the spears are thick, peel them lightly with a vegetable peeler. Place them in the top half of the steamer pan set. Steam for 5 to 10 minutes depending on the thickness of the asparagus, or until asparagus is tender.
