You folk are so lucky finding those great mushrooms. I have a few strange ones growing on my front lawn where my huge old acer tree used to stand, but with my luck they're probably very poisonous :cry:

Check them out Gloria....they may be edible!

Check out Rogers Mushrooms on-line....it's a great site for identification.

SG, I never thought I'd find myself writing this, but you and I are definitely of one mind

SG and Yorkie, I too agree. I remember a kind friend giving me a puffball mushroom when I was pregnant and suffering from severe morning sickness. I got as far as making a lovely mushroom soup and then the nausea hit. :shock: Gross. The offending soup pan was removed to the very bottom of the garden. Needless to say I haven't had a single mushroom since! :cry: :cry:

I have a work colleague who has just found herself pregnant and is not having a good time :pukel: of it. I thought you were about to say that this is a good remedy :roll:
