Papa, what’s a mush-room?  It sounds like a place where you make a big mess.  Or keep the breakfast cereal, haha.

Well, once again we are benefitting from the incredible funghi (mushrooms in Italian) that our neighbor, Jean, grows on a big log in his garden! They are called les pholiotes de peuplier, the Black Poplar mushroom in English.

Tonight there will be a lovely omelette, but  before those mushrooms go in, I’ll ask for a little bite, even though I am not a big egg eater, but omelettes are something I’m supposed to like, being French, haha.

Uh, oh, mama has changed her mind.  These mushrooms are so tasty that she’s just going to sauté them in a little butter with parsley, whatever that is.  I think I’ll ask instead for a little butter…

Wait a minute, do I like butter?
