Foraging Mushrooms

I went with my mom today to hunt for mushrooms.
It was fun!
I love a treasure hunt.

This is the first one we found.
We took one and left a baby one.
I plan on checking back tomorrow and harvesting the baby.
P.S. I spotted this one first.
My mom with the first puffball mushroom.
It's big!

Some more mushrooms.
We are waiting to test these,
if/when we find our mushroom field guide.










Jack-in-the-pulpit







This puffball my mom spotted.
I walked right by it!




Underside of the puffball.
Neat, huh?








Natural arch.




Anyone know what these are?
We didn't pick them.










Tiny!



Fairy stump.




Cooking the puffballs in butter.



Yummy!
