Good looking asparagus around

I've been seeing some good looking asparagus around. It brought to mind this pasta dish that I used to make.
  Penne with asparagus and mushrooms
     1/4 cup olive oil
     8 oz. white mushrooms
     5-6 cloves garlic finely chopped
     1 bunch asparagus, tough stems removed, blanched and cooled, and cut into 1 in. pieces
     1/2 pound penne pasta
     Juice of half of a lemon
     1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
      Romano cheese to taste
      Fresh ground black pepper to taste
   Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the penne and stir occasionally. Heat a medium sized  saute pan over med. high heat. Add olive oil and mushrooms and cook about 2-3 min.. Add the garlic and cook another 2-3 minutes. Put the asparagus in and heat through. Drain the pasta, put into a large serving bowl, add asparagus and mushroom mixture, the lemon juice, parsley, romano, and black pepper, Toss well and serve.
