Baked a loaf and dinner rolls yesterday. Family hid the evidence of the rolls.

I don't think I can get those mushrooms here. Just white button and portabella. But it sounds good, Jared.

Actually, the easiest way to get a hold of those mushrooms is to grow them yourself. There’s a website that sells everything you need.

I’m actually just getting started growing mushrooms myself. I’m currently waiting on some spores for Lions mane mushrooms.

We've grown mushrooms here before, Jared, or tried to. I find it difficult to get the humidity just right. Missouri can't make up its mind about that ....

My father is out of town. While he’s away, and while my mom‘s at work, I’m making dinner.

You all know what that means, of course.

Rump roast tonight.
