    I am an Oregonian. And I understand your trepidation with the mushrooms. I only feel secure in the mushrooms I was trained to spot. I learned from my grandfather and stepfather. If however you do find someone trustworthy to show younwhat you are looking for, it would be worth it. The taste is...

    Cream of mushroom soup sounds perfecto. It is a bit overcast today and creamy hot soup would be wonderful. What kind of mushrooms do you use? "back home" we used to gather morels , boletus and what we called cauliflower and calf's brains mushrooms. The morels... Oh how I miss them. My mother...

    You put all your stones outside to moon bathe? Are those crystals or? Sounds fascinating.

    And speaking of eggs. I had my lovely eggs in the incubator. And much like a first time mother I want only perfect conditions for those eggs...nothing is too good for those eggs. And here came my daughter with coat pockets full of grubby eggs wanting to know if she could "pop them in the 'bator...

For me, I tend to be really all or nothing though, so I am working really hard at tackling small piles when I have only a few minutes. This however is very difficult for...
