Throwback to this awesome toad! I am pretty sure it is from the Bufotes genus a.k.a. Eurasian green toads.

The second picture is so funny to me lol

Lucky find and awesome pictures! That meal sounds so delicous!!

Found these in late September, I had never tried Chicken of the Woods before! I think they were growing on the same log last year, but I didn't grab any because they were too old. I didn't take very good pictures this time. I was so excited that I settled for the "alien abduction" lighting.

They look like pumpkin fingers sticking out of the log.

If you want to know my method for preparing them, here you go:

I brushed them off, wiped them down with a damp paper towel, and cut them into strips to look for bugs. Then I seasoned them and cooked them for 14 minutes over medium heat with olive oil. I flipped them halfway through, then braised them with butter and lemon juice to finish. I served it over a spinach jalapeño salad. It was freakin bomb.

Do not make assumptions about mushrooms you see based on this post. I'm a novice. Some edible mushrooms have dangerous lookalikes.

Some Yellowing Knight Mushrooms a.k.a. Tricholoma scalpturatum.

Hiyaa!:) That kind of looks like a White Elfin Saddle a.k.a. Helvella crispa with a somewhat whithered cap.
