Mushrooms!

Went on a hike the other day...taking the usual path up the ridge. DOG was it a nice day!

Made our way around the ridge and started into the pasture when we saw these white things dotted throughout the field. Some of them were about 5 inches in diameter! Huge 'cause you know that's bigger than my head, right?

We had to check them out, but weren't all that interested in them. Mum says that's a good thing, since we don't know what kind of mushrooms these are. If they were good ones there sure were some jobs retail to be had collecting and cooking these things up!

Some four-legger liked them...check this one out! These were the white things we saw all around the pasture. Half eaten mushrooms. Now that's something you don't see everyday, least we don't!

More to come tomorrow....got lots to tell you about our big hiking trip last Saturday, and other stuff...stay tuned!

  3. I LOVE puffballs! O they are so yummy! I slice them and fry them in butter. I go mushroom hunting all the time, but they are really hard to find around here, because so many people like to eat them.
