Let's talk asparagus

I've fond childhood memories of pulling off on a roadside and cutting wild asparagus, and recently, I've seen some absolutely gorgeous asparagus in stores for $1.99/lb (recently they've been around five bucks a pound), so I thought it would be worth kicking around some ideas for these lovely gems.
Bacon wrapped/grilled gets my nod.
Chilled asparagus soup with feta is a close second.
Whatcha got?

Wife cooks asparagus very often. She typically bakes them in the oven at 400 for 8 min or so... A little evoo, cracke salt, cracked pepper.... Son puts parm cheese on his.

The older I get, the more I love it. Did a purée the other night with it that was awesome. My favorite is blanching then coating in olive oil, salt, pepper and on the grill.

A like to wrap a few spears in prosciutto and stick them in the oven.

I had an amazing asparagus soup once. Would love to have that recipe and make it. Post yours if you make a soup.

Trader Joe's has incredible frozen asparagus. Spears are individually flash frozen so you can cook just what you need. They're thin spears with natural bright green color and best of all they usually cost less than fresh.

I had some last night. Steamed with crab boil added to the water, lemon, butter, and garlic sauce on top with some cracked pepper. 
I also toss them on the grill about as much as the above method.

My wife cooks them in the microwave these days. I assume it's some Pinterest deal. They're pretty good. Not as good as a steak though.

Marinated some in Yoshidas last night and threw them on the grill today with some burgers. Money.

I like frying them real quick with a toss of corn starch. Then a little kosher salt. You won't believe how good it is.
I also love grilling them with a bit of EVOO.

In the skillet with butter and olive oil, seasoned with coarse salt. Parmesan cheese on the top right as cooking is finished (still crispy spears) and turn off the skillet and let the Parmesan coat the asparagus.
