Day Ten : How's The Log?

So, how's the log? Well it's starting to get these tiny white bumps in one corner. I think they're the mushrooms.

We re- soaked it last night. It's really heavy from all that soaking.
While we wait I'm going to tell you about some OTHER mushrooms. So on my birthday i got this really awesome mushroom book called The Book of Fungi by Peter Roberts and Shelley Evans.

I like to look at it to see if mushrooms are poisonous, where they grow, and if they are rare, etc. The pictures are super-awesome. Here are some of my favorites:

This is the Scaly Tangerine Mushroom. 

This is the Barometer Earthstar

This is the Mauve Elf Cup

This is the Glazed Cup. It really does look like a glazed cup!
I wonder if whoever named this mushroom was thinking about those martini glasses with the sugary edges.

This is the Stinky Squid I wonder if it smells bad?

Stay tuned for posts about the log!
