And The Drought Continues .....
Still haven't receive enough rain to get anything in most of the woods around Columbia going, at least not in my usual spots. The fall season is looking good up north as Michigan has had plenty of rain and some long cool nights to get the honeys, hen of the woods and chickens flushing. I hope we get some rain soon or the fall season will be a bust just like last year.
At least I had some nice fried morels with breakfast this morning. They were delicious and tasted fresh like I had just picked them this morning. A delightful reminder of last season's fortune. See my post from April (Eating Morels in December - How to Preserve Your Bounty) for more details on how they were prepared. Whenever I eat some I always think ahead to next spring . They are so fickle a fungi, that even a seasoned hunter wonders will they be there next year.

I am not saying they will kill, just that they can. You may be cooking them so you burn off the toxins or the reds in your area may not have very high levels of that toxin.
I did a blog entry on this called To Eat Or Not To Eat - the debate over reds that you should check out.
