Yup. I feel like I shouldn't let them go to waste. Maybe I should parboil the twice and see what's up.Amanita Muscaria I think.

Amanita Muscaria or Fly Agaric MushroomAre these edible?
The guy seems to know his stuff about them. Apparently, they are also involved in the origin story of the "Berserkers", some Viking types who were surrounded and outnumbered by an enemy and due to be slaughtered the next morning. They cooked up a big pot of amanita muscaria soup, ate it, stripped off all their clothes, grabbed their swords and axes and came out swinging!Amanita Muscaria or Fly Agaric Mushroom
Where the idea of being "both poisonous and edible" is explored.
I think that is a piece of a brush from a street sweeper?
I think they inflicted quite a few casualties, but eventually they all wound up being slaughtered. But, they died heroically. And high as kites!so . o . o . . . . how'd the story end?

SB-Did you use sawdust or plug spawn for your logs? Also, is that an all season strain of Shiitake?Cultivated Back Yard Shiitake Mushrooms
Today -- I decided it's time to harvest the few Shiitake Mushrooms from my logs which I soaked and shocked with a sledgehammer 15 days ago, see post # 35 above.

These above are on a log which I took down into the basement when the weather turned freezIng at nights. Several days later, there is enough for one meal.
Below and left, on the cutting board, are stunted size Shiitake from logs left outside and on right the nice Shitake from the only log I took into the basement where the temps stayed above 63 degrees.

I left a baby Lions Mane growing when I did my harvest post # 34, 19 days ago. I'm going to return and see if it grew since then.
Happy adventures in the woods, everyone! 😎 🌞
