Not a better way to eat......now we need a couple dozen crappie fillets, and maybe a wild turkey breast, and eating would be about as good as it gets. 

We found about 60 morels today.......and the teenage horde in my house is ravenous.

Plus I picked up 20 lbs. of deer sausage yesterday from the deer my daughter killed last Fall.  It's a good weekend of eating.

Sounds great. The only possibilities I saw on my ride today were a few windfall coconuts and roadkill lizard.

Looks like a good haul!

I was on the trails yesterday and kept thinking about all the  mushrooms that were probably hiding in the woods. I didn't want to disturb the flowers to go look for them .

Great, now I'm hungry.

I did a little living off the land recently. A friend walked me through catching, preparing, and slow cooking a wild boar. They're an ecological nuisance down here so they've got to go, and if that's the case they may as well go in my stomach. I've never done anything like that before so it was a learning experience, plus it's cool to get free, non hormone, non caged, wild food.

Yep....now is the time to look, and it'll be over by 5/1.....maybe an extra week this year because of the cool temps....but overall not likely.  Get out there and tromp those flowers down!! 

Great looking hound!!!

I'm not sure what I'm looking at.....but I bet it tasted good.  I use to go every year or so down to the Palo Duro Canyon in Texas to shoot pigs.  Good times and great eating.

Had an ex-employee come in last week and talked about the friend who had a mushroom and fish feed for his friends over the weekend, because he and a few friends found a little over 100 lbs. of nice mushrooms.  They said they put them in bags and weighed them until they were over 100 lbs.  I have filled a few 5 gallon buckets in the years when I mushroom hunted, but never anywhere close to 100 lbs. worth.
