    Mushrooms can be tough, even small differences between the gills or the stipe or even slight differences in color can be a make or break on the poison factor. I'd do some research before you go and sautee up your last day alive.

    We like them, but it alway get them from the market because I am not well versed in what is ok and what is not.
    I might try growing them some day. Those who do find it rewarding.

    I found 6 grays yesterday. Supposed to be relatively warm and rainy here this week so the yellows might be up by the weekend.
