Love the dappled light in this shot - somehow it makes the mushrooms a little bit magical.

Granny Janny H. Aug 4, 2009, 2:02am EDT

You know, I think all mushrooms are magical.

Lovely composition. Almost abstract!

I've been getting into the practice of framing my shots before I shoot...but this subject was great from every angle.

Chuck them into the pot, Jan, and we'll have mushroom soup.

Granny Janny H. Aug 4, 2009, 1:50am EDT

I didn't buy them but I should've. I would not have been able to cook them that night because we were driving back home from out of town and I didn't have an opportunity to cook em up fresh.

What a shame.

Go back and buy some ... they might be magic mushrooms.

Granny Janny H. Aug 23, 2009, 2:41am EDT

not necessary...you are the magic, magi. You keep the excitement going.
I cannot wait until I see what you and Lady Bess cook up.

I love mushrooms but honestly, who first had the nerve to try to eat something which looks so funky?

I love the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus.

Keith K. Sep 30, 2009, 8:54am EDT

Weirdo. Were you drinking in the middle of the night?

Janna R. Sep 30, 2009, 1:08pm EDT

Ha!

(It does sound like Ralph also loves beverages produced by the fermentation of sugar or starch-containing plant materials.)

Ralph J. Oct 2, 2009, 8:40am EDT

Indeed, I relish the fermented liquor made from any malted grain, but commonly from barley malt, with hops or some other substance to impart a bitter flavor.
