fungal photo

[jay]

Here's a photo of a couple of the yellow morels growing in my side yard, as promised... I suppose these are examples of upstanding morel values.

My skin is itching... my throat... Augggggh!

Actually, this isn't that bad. You should see vyoma's web pages. He's taken hundreds of photos of fungi and is quite the geek on them from all angles (medicinal, historical, cooking... you name it).

I hardly see them as upstanding morels. If anything, I consider being exposed to them an example of morel degradation...

You both need to be punished for those statements.

And brian1789, I'm still perfectly willing to throw myself into the briar batch of gettting those off your hands. or leaves or whatever.

[ame-chan.livejournal.com]

and the morel of the story would be?

First come, first served... ;^)

(giggle)
To use a compost bin instead of letting the leaves pile up alongside the house?

yumyum, I'll come!

p.233 has a stuffed morel recipe...

All that the Rain Promises and More... ---VSB copy

It doesn't look like a false morel. You can let it grow! There are GIANT morels!

False morels look brainlike rather than the spongey lattice top... and it is firmly one piece, not attached only at the top, so it isn't a verpa either...

Not an appealing new design for silicon stuff, I can only hope.

Eep.

Re: yumyum, I'll come!

[vokzal.livejournal.com]

Will you let them grow more to get bigger? The book does say you ought to cook them. I would like to reserve one mushroom morel, please! I will even come down there and pick it up! :>

Wow! I am envious. MmmmMorels.

My first thought upon discovery was "if one made a silicon mold of one of these, some women might buy them..."

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

I'd offer to ship them, but the customs folks would probably not like that... (smile).

Shocking, ain't it, what people will do?
