St George's a plenty!

 Received a phone call from a friend of mine today who had found some mushrooms just across the road from his Mum's house after a quick pic was sent i was straight over in the car as i knew what he had found straight away.
The beautiful and very tasty St George's mushroom's. These appear in the spring (Along with the morels they are the only 2 edible species that have an April/May season) usually around the 23rd of April (Hence the name) I was starting to think i was going to miss out on these this season as my only other spot for these has not produced this year. But we had a very good haul of 30 or so as can be seen, so after leaving a few for his Mum and taking the rest back home they will be tonights tea, Yum!
(Apologies that the pics are wrong way up, i have them saved the correct way but the blog won't let me upload them as saved??!?)
