What a fun read! I’ve never explored the mushroom kingdom but I realize I am missing something magical and profound. How fun! I used to live in CO and people were constantly foraging in the area. Thanks for writing!

Thanks for reading! Colorado and mushrooms just seem to go together even though it's so dry here. haha

Mushrooming and Mystical Mushrooms were a fun way to learn a bit because the illustrations are so lovely. We looked at the pictures for hours.

We love mushrooms. If you find them yellow oysters are great with seafood! I’m feeling very jealous. Our local year round farmers’ market closed in early Dec and now I can’t get my weekly haul from Miller’s. I wish you and V could have met Lexie. She LOVED mushrooms and was always on the lookout. We found so many different ones on our last day hiking in Scotland.

I'm pretty sure I saw yellow oyster mushrooms when we were browsing. I will have to look for them next time! Our local CSA has an option to get shares of mushrooms and I am really tempted to add that to our vegetable share.

I bet the mushrooms in Scotland are amazing! It's such a beautiful place.

That mushroom foraging class sounds amazing. Though I am always a little afraid of wild mushrooms.

I agree! I think I'm mostly trying to decide if I would be trusting enough to eat a mushroom I foraged.
