My passion for morels, and the crime of passion I committed for them, are plenty public. So I plan to go to Irvine, Kentucky on Saturday, April 26, 2008, for the Mountain Mushroom Festival. I do not know whether there will be actual fresh morels present at the Festival, but I do believe there will be some mushrooms of some sort, and some mushroom cooking, and a Fungus 5K (isn’t that kind of big for a fungus?) and a parade.

It may be raining - but Morels like that. And I like it, too.

I am learning to use a new tool called Twine. I mean, I’m trying to learn. The idea is to find new ways to tie things and people together, if that’s what we want. I am hoping to use my local food twine to make it easy for people to post and find information on events relating to local food in Kentucky.
