Some Tasty Tid Bits...

Did you know that Manna from Heaven, spoke of in the Book of Exodus, was a lot like mushrooms but tasted like honey wafers?  Now that is Love!
I painted a few mushrooms on rocks. Yes I did say rocks. Well they turned out cute & will most likely become a gift. I think I should just paint me a garden because of my big purple thumb. haha I had so much fun painting the mushrooms that I had to paint some on paper. 
Here's another Tasty Tid Bit... my favorite mushroom bread recipe.  A friend served this years ago and I begged for the recipe.  I think I will make this for Easter.  Just click on the picture for the recipe. Thanks to BeanTown Baker for sharing the photo & recipe!

A Fungus Among Us?...

I found this mushroom while playing in the backyard with the little guy. Later, my hubby rented the movie Men Who Stare At Goats and I laughed all the way through it. I think George Clooney was better in this movie than in Up In The Air. Go figure.

Here is a link to Thomas Keller's Over-The-Top Mushroom Quiche which I plan to try as soon as I'm feeling up to making a big mess in the kitchen! Oh I bet it's evil all right. Don't you think a fresh spinach & strawberry salad with balsamic dressing would be really good to serve with this? If you try it before I do be sure to let me know how it turns out!
