Mushroom September 16, 2011, at 8:32 pm | Did you know that my girls are budding mycologists?
Do you know what a mycologist is?
Me neither.
It’s just a fancy name for a mushroom expert, which I discovered while trying to identify the spore in our front yard.
Take a look:

Here’s Susie smelling the “flower.”

Kinda pretty, don’t you think? My best guess is that this particular mushroom is a “chicken of the woods,” so-called because it supposedly tastes like chicken.
I’ll take their word on that one.
Good thing Jim doesn’t like exotic foods, because there’s no way I’m going to be frying up that chicken.

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy! Feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected].

It’s so pretty, and already has “fall colors” on it’s fungi. You East Coasters really know how to put on an autumn show. 🙂
