walking in the woods, looking at the forest floor. bring a pal and marvel at the joy when you spot a patch. i like morels and chanterelles. even if you don't find any, you still got a nice moment in nature. morels look like little brains.

I love to forage for edible mushrooms, but I also just love learning and identifying as many different species as possible. You begin to recognize certain phenotypes like spore bearing surface, gill attachment, cap morphology, etc and begin to recognize individual species or genera like old friends. They are like magical aliens, except theyβre literally on our planet- literally right under our noses.

Me and my boyfriend discovered this wild specimen completely on accident under some shrubs, in a very populated city park btw. I thought the rarer looking mushrooms only spawn in remote wooded areas. It's so beautiful I just wanna be a fairy living in that mushroom π€! Because it's so outlandish looking we could figure out what it's called pretty fast. Its a basket stinkhorn and it only stays this beautiful for about a day though! It had shrivelled up next morning when we came back to check on the area, but so many more of the same species had sprouted in its place in just a night.
So you never know what could spawn after it rains in your local park, get your camera/phone, go get your steps in, fill your lungs with after-rain air and be known as the bog hag that inspects dead wood, shrubs and foliage.
Happy hunting!

sadie is 2 1/2 and too attached to humans for her own good. she would not survive in a zombie apocolypse. she knows to knock lego sets over to get attention from my fiance. she will yell when you go to the bathroom. she loves paper bags and cardboard boxes. her middle name is louise. she doesn't understand the difference between a charger and a string. she steals pastries.
i am a big fan of Sadie.
