2.8# of fungi! (Was a puffball- No gills or stem, though it was misleadingly shaped. Will share a pic of the inside!)

Those things as so tasty. Looks like it could make loads of mushroom steaks. Butter and garlic make all the difference

Thankfully some smaller and not-so-ripe puffballs came up too! I managed to snaffle one. I haven't seen any for several years now, though. It's devastating.

It looks pink on the inside, is that unusual for puffballs?

I think this bad boy was REALLY ripe and nearly ready to blow. I probably should have let it. Maybe I would still be finding puffballs!

Wow, that's crazy! So squishable, must have made a massive cloud
