“All Fungi are edible.
Some fungi are only edible once.”
― Terry Pratchett

Walk (snippet)
Everything was warm and wet and near the end of my walk I came across a field of mushrooms. I’ve always wanted to be able to tell poison fungi from delicious. It would be so cool to be able to go out to a field and pick a few, carry them home and make an omelet. I picked one out and put it in my pocket – to take home for no particular reason. I thought of Lee and how he is always picking up rocks, feathers, old bones, or anything else useless to haul around and pile in old shoeboxes.
I know where he gets that from.
And a piece of flash fiction for today:
So not all edibles are fungible.
(I’ll see myself out…)
That is so bad. I always think of the best science fair project – moldy bread… called “The Fungus Amongus”
And don’t forget putting a fingerprint in a petri dish filled with jello, then tucking it into the dark closet until the mold begins to form!
