Shrooms


My friend, Grace, gave me a really cool Portabello Mushroom growing kit for my birthday. I like mushrooms, but I had never even considered growing them. I opened the box and started misting the last week of December.

And this morning I went to mist, and there is a huge, 6x7 inches Portabello in there. I couldn't help but think that it was far too easy. Usually I find gardening to be full of reward, but also much strenous labor. This I mist ever other day, and leave it in the basement where it is much cooler. There are many more mushrooms coming up now. We will have a real harvest!

We had creamed tuna on toast with Portabello mushrooms today for lunch. Yummy! Thanks Grace!
