We often see mushrooms when we are out for walks in the autumn, but as I'm just not sure what is edible, I would rather do without than risk being ill (or worse!!) I envy you all those quince ..... we only have an ornamental quince, which only produced a handful last year!

I have a limited repertoire of mushrooms that I know I can identify, and one or two chums that I totally trust, but there are some mushrooms that even though people tell me they are fine, I cannot bring myself to consider!! Pictures alone are not enough for identification - habitat, timing, weather, smell, texture all play a part as well. However some of them are totally yummy so worth knowing about (parasol mushrooms and cepes in particular). Happy New Year Anne, by the way!
