Blue Oyster Mushroom Harvest

I've decided to post more pictures. Perhaps a picture a day? That may be a tad too ambitious, but it's worth a shot. I have so many great photos of bees and plants and dinners and fun adventurous things I have not yet gotten to post (usually cause they happened so long ago). So here you go. A picture a day. "Day" might begin to mean "every few days." Be warned.

Blue Oyster Mushrooms - pictures from 2010 first mushroom growing experiments.

Aren't they lovely? This is what they look like when just beginning to "fruit". It's an indoor kit that you can put as a centerpiece in the middle of your dining room table! "Or a side table," says James, always practical, "a side table would work fine, too."

We stir fried these "little" guys in some butter, added some onion and salt, and then put them directly onto a pizza. I was so excited. They actually weighed more than I expected. 180-ish grams. Lots of water in those fresh mushrooms.
