cutest fungi ever

I found these gorgeous mushrooms the other day and could not help myself.  Can you see why?

oh so cute

see what I mean?  For about $2.50 they come in a special sealed package that allows them to live comfortably before they are drawn and quartered and added to your favorite recipe.  I used half of them in a stir-fry, the second half I added to my carbonnade à la flamande.  delish.

They are grown in California and are oh so healthy too! I cannot wait to try the king trumpet :-)
