30 Days of Photos - Day 5 - Mushroom


I love mushrooms.

In a salad.

On a burger.

On a steak.

In my soup.

Raw.

I've never had a magic mushroom.

And yet I'd term mushrooms on my dinner plate magical.

I buy my mushrooms at the store.

I never eat mushrooms I find growing in the yard.

And what's the smallest room in my house?

A mush room.

If you wanna be a fungi (heh, heh) pop on over to Ziva's place and see what other photos have sprouted up today.

LOL! I love mushrooms, too. "Those look yummy," says my tummy. I love your little ditty.
Agent 54 said…
Nice. I thought this might be my pic. My apartment is small I don't have mush room.
Shawn Ohara said…
I like mushrooms in my omelette. The breakfast of champignons.
Cheryl P. said…
Cream of mushroom soup, homemade of course, is really good.


You have a mush room? As I am a Realtor, I am sure that adds value to your home.
ReformingGeek said…
Are you sure you weren't rolling in the fungi this morning?


I've got to mush....er...rush. Lots to do today. :)
nonamedufus said…
I just love shrooms.
nonamedufus said…
Ha, ha, Agent 54. Good one.
nonamedufus said…
We are the champignons!
nonamedufus said…
I love cream of mushroom soup. Delicious.
nonamedufus said…
I wasn't rolling in the fungi, no. Just to put a "cap" on this comment.
mikewjattoomanymornings said…
Okay, that's pretty good.
mikewjattoomanymornings said…
I'm with you on this one, NoName. In fact, a mushroom burger with Swiss cheese sounds just about perfect right now. Thanks for the suggestion.
Ziva said…
I love a man who loves mushrooms. I'm coming over for dinner tonight.
babs (beetle) said…
I love mushrooms any which way, but deep fried, whole are delish! Sadly I'm a tad more health conscious now days, so don't have them deep fried.
nonamedufus said…
Yep, sounds good, Mike. Think I'll join you.
nonamedufus said…
I'm ready. How's steak and mushrooms? Or are you a vegetarian? If so, we may have some eggplant that Mrs D has been saving for just such an occasion.
nonamedufus said…
Never tried deep-fried mushrooms. Bet that'd be good.
nonamedufus said…
Spore the merrier. (OK, that's reaching.)
babs (beetle) said…
Oh you must try them. Button (closed) mushrooms, deep fried for just long enough to go golden. The mushroom juices stay inside. Delicious!
Jackal said…
nom nom burp
Ziva said…
Steak and mushrooms sounds divine. And no, I'm not a vegetarian, but I'm not opposed to having one for dinner.
nonamedufus said…
Excuse me?! You're cut off.
nonamedufus said…
Rare? Your steak, not you. We know how rare you are.
Ziva said…
Yes, please. A good vet should still be able to bring the steak back to life.
Cheryl said…
The house I grew up in had a mush room too!
Nora Blithe said…
Personally, I'm hit or miss on mushrooms. I love them in my soup. I hate them on pizza. Go figure.
nonamedufus said…
There's such a thing?
nonamedufus said…
Pizza isn't pizza without mushrooms, Nora.
nonamedufus said…
Ha. Mrs D likes hers "blue". You can still hear it moo on the plate.
Nicky said…
Sigh. You won't eat a harmless pea, but you'll eat disgusting mushrooms. Je suis très deçu, mon ami.
MalisaHargrove said…
I'm with you, Dufus. Love mushrooms on anything. I don't understand why people buy mushrooms in cans though. Fresh mushrooms are wonderful. I think they are the fungus among us.
Traci Shannon said…
I love that you have a mush room, too. Yours is probably cleaner than mine...
:-)

nonamedufus said…
Canned mushrooms? Nope. Not going there. Gotta be fresh...like me.
nonamedufus said…
Don't get me going on peas. You know better.
nonamedufus said…
I was only kidding. Is there such a thing as a mush room?

Cheryl said…
Not that I've ever heard. We DID have a mudroom and everything that landed there was pretty mushed together what with 9 people trying to find a place to put all their winter layers so none of us dragged more than our fair share of snow into the house.
Traci Shannon said…
I defined mush room as a room where everything that doesn't have a home is mushed together. I then showed photos to prove just how familiar I am with said room.I think I gave Ziva and a couple of others OCD attacks. So that's my mush room. :-)
I haven't had a magic mushroom either, but I've seen people who have! Apparently the colors are QUITE amazing. :)


I love mushrooms too and I NEVER remember to buy them! So when I do my daughter goes crazy like I brought home the finest chocolate or something.... it runs in the family!
mike said…
Mushrooms like those are great when they're pristine. Once they start to get the smallest blemish, I run like hell. Aside from that, I'm mostly cool with mushrooms
nonamedufus said…
Ah, okay, then in that case I've got one of those and rarely go there.
nonamedufus said…
I never tried a magic mushroom either but my adventurous days are far behind me.
nonamedufus said…
Yeah, once they turn it's best to avoid them. I love mushrooms in a salad, especially a Cobb salad..
nonamedufus said…
Our front hall looks like that sometimes. Especially with Mrs D's shoes! (Don't tell her I mentioned this.)
meleahrebeccah said…
Yummmmmmmo!! I love mushrooms too!
nonamedufus said…
Tasty, right? And that ain't lame!
You didn't serve me any of those mushrooms when I came to visit. You must have been hoarding them.
nonamedufus said…
No we were fresh out. Warn us the next time you're coming and we'll get some.

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav...

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy! ...
