Stir Fry with Noodles and Random Shit


So, this was a throw-together meal. We had some left over udon  from making these, some asparagus, and some ham from Local Pig that was juuuust about to go bad. We added some ingredients that we always keep around (mushrooms, garlic, ginger, edamame, radishes, and green onions).  Let me stress that stir fry is one of those things that was pretty much designed to use up what you've got sitting around. I have a pretty loosey-goosey approach to recipes in general, mainly that I almost never follow them ever, and I'm always adding stuff (coughcough*garlic*coughcough) and subbing out stuff that I actually have for other stuff that I very really don't. This way, I never have to make a special trip to the store to make something. My inability to follow a recipe thoroughly is the reason that I am the worst at baking, and I leave all that measuring and specificity to Dave, whose precise measuring in contrast to my eyeballing makes him seem like some kind of a bread-making wizard, when maybe it all just comes down to following directions.
