Mushroom time




Sunday was a beautiful day, sunny, mid 70's and a slight wind. A perfect day to go mushrooming. So we headed off to the local woods with our good friend Veronica, her daughter Barbara and boyfriend Zdenik. We went to Veronica's parents cabin and into the woods behind it. It had been a nice weekend, so many people were out and the woods had been a bit cleaned out. We were lucky enough to find a basketful of about five different variety. Under the watchful eye of the expert, Veronica's father, we cleaned them and prepared them for lunch. Then Veronica's mom took over and boiled then fried them. We all gathered for the final part,..eating them!. They were wonderful. Now I just need to go back and get some to dry for the winter. What a great way to spend an afternoon!
