Just got back from visiting family in Missouri. It is mushroom season in that part of the country. I didn't find a whole lot, and didn't hear about anyone else that did, kind of a weird spring, late and dry there. Anyhow, after a lot of searching, I think I ended up with more mushrooms than ticks, but just barely. Enough for a good chowdown for 2. Fried them up last night for a friend who had never had them before.
