Dried Morel Mushrooms -
People have been preserving mushrooms by drying them for a long, long time, and for many good reasons. size Dried mushrooms are handy to have around. They're always ready to go at short notice and are easily reconstituted. What's more, they can have a shelf life of a year or more when properly stored. Sure, like all dried mushrooms, dried morels taste a little different from fresh ones. But considered on their own merits, they are delicious. In fact, some mushroom lovers prefer dried to fresh. The drying process creates a deep, pungent flavor distinctly different from fresh mushrooms.

ego
To speak of oneself is always an act of daring
It is to venture into a gallery of distorting mirrors,
each of which reflect a diffent image.
It is to venture into a gallery of distorting mirrors,
each of which reflect a diffent image.
taking Nature to heart and loving it fr what it is
Nature!
We are surrounded and enveloped by her – incapable of stepping outside of her and incapable of penetrating deeper into her.
Neither asked nor warned we are received in the cycle of her dance and carried along until we drop, tried, out of her arms.
She creates ever new shapes, what exists has never before existed, what has passed away will not return. Everything is new and yet always the same.
We live in her midst and are foreign to her. She constantly speaks to us , but never reveals her secret to us, we constantly affect her, but have no power over her.
--Goethe 1783
