Accidental Asparagus (a recipe of my own)

The other night I had asparagus in my fridge that I needed to cook. I melted some butter in a pan, threw in some sliced garlic, and sauteed the asparagus. At this point I would normally pour in some wine, turn down the heat, cover the pan and let the wine glaze the asparagus. However, I didn't have any white wine. The only thing I had in my fridge that seemed like it might work was tonic water. I decided to give it a go.

It was amazing. It gave a slightly sweet glaze to the asparagus. I added a touch of salt and pepper. George LOVED it. Hooray for experimenting!
