Yay!!! Home grown mushroom goodness in a jam jar!? April fool! -- Hardly.
Over the years I have seen many mushrooms growing out of jars! They sell kits & I have grown Shitake and Oyster before from kits. This past weekend, I enjoyed fresh lionsmane mushroom - growing out of a bag on my counter! I can’t wait for more.. I would take another over a steak, it was that tasty ‘meaty’ goodness, & it's god for the brain. There’s some on the property (I know it!) & this spring/summer the hunt is on, I’m determined to learn about all mushrooms & experience more edibles.
I want to try to dry a few to use over the next winter. I have a jar of dried mushrooms Storm won from some MST event. They are lovely to see on the counter like my jar of Chaga. I add them to soup, sauces and have even on occasion just grabbed one to nibble, mushroom jerky - I guess. If nature provides, give thanks! Yay!!
Abbey Gardens (not far from here) has a mushroom course and it reads terrific, it sold out VERY fast. I was disappointed with myself, I didn’t book it as soon as I read the email, oh well - I’ll watch for another, perhaps in the fall. I’m fortunate for Storm who (former Foray Director for the MST) indulges me with our mini foray adventures. & has already promised to do so this spring. Yay!!!
Right now, it’s snowing, but I know it’s on it’s way out so I don’t mind. Falling snow is relaxing & calming, especially in the morning - the miracle of snow. Yay. lol
Bow had his testicles removed yesterday. YAY!! I hope this prevents from wandering the woods. He is napping as though nothing happened.. Arrow was upset at him leaving in a cat carrier. We are happy he is fine.
Thank You Jesus - for another day.. Yay!!! (Say it like Kermit! Like you mean it.)
You were created to create! Yay!
Time to paint - Yay!!!
