Treasure Hunt

What a beautiful day to be a Swede!  The sun was shining, the air was crisp and the mushrooms were ripe.  The Swede and I went out to the woods with Mama Swede and family friends Ingvor and Roland, who happen to be mushroom experts.  Do not underestimate how important it is to have mushroom experts with you because 95% of those suckers will kill you dead.  Especially the ones that actually look good enough to eat.  The ugly, edible ones, such as the chanterelles we were seeking, may be good in soup, sauces and on sandwiches, but they make terrible Smurf houses.
Oh, and I got to wear my rainboots!
