    Mushroom season has arrived in the Kansas City, Mo area!

    One of my sons went out a few days ago and found a big handful of the small, gray mushrooms. Just enough for a good taste. I was kinda surprised cause it's been unseasonably cool and cloudy with lots of rain.

    We just had our first morel appear. I still can't figure out how my wife spotted it. It's only a couple inches tall with no others anywhere in sight. She is a spectacular 'shroomer. It is several weeks later that last year.

    Just got in from looking at the usual spots on our land. Got a few morrells and did real well on the oysters.

    Getting knee surgery tomorrow so hoping I will be healed enough to go out and get some morels before the season ends.

    Late season this year as we have yet to hit 70 degrees and the mountains are still covered in snow.

    One of my wife's cousins posted Sunday that a quart of (I assume Morels) were going for $300.00 a quart. Well, I say going for, I'm not sure if that was the asking price of the going OTD price. That was in Clay City Indiana a lot of farm land.

    Wifey and I picked 15 good sized morels this weekend. Pan fried some like my great grandmother always did for breakfast. The rest I sautéed in butter with some minced garlic and mixed it in with some browned butter pasta and spinach. SO good!

    The ones in front are. The others are oysters.

    Nope. Just not at the peak of ripeness. Already consumed.
