Mushrooms in Autumn in one thing I look forward to with particular eagerness. If you have read my blog for a while you will know that I always get excited about mushrooms. Their appearance puts me into a frenzy of "mushroom spotting" whenever I am out.
Well, this week, the first week of Spring, we have had wild weather. Cold, fast winds, snow and sleet all conspired to keep us mostly inside, in front of the fire. I ventured out to milk the cow and pick early daffodils but that was about it.
Until today. My special "mushroom spotting eyeballs" noticed a white "something" growing in my flower bed out the kitchen window. Sure enough, in the wrong weather, at the wrong time of year, beautiful, meaty, fragrant mushrooms are emerging!
