A Discovery of Strange Fungi

Hmmm...what does this look like? This strange hot pink stemmed mushroom appears to be hatching out of an egg filled with a gooey substance. We found this along with another similar fungus in the miniature horse pasture...there were also two unhatched eggs nearby. Does anyone have any idea what kind of mushroom this is? Here are a few pictures of our discovery:

Wild Evening Primrose for Combating Multiple Sclerosis

Evening Primrose has been used for centuries for easing PMS and menopausal symptoms, and helps calm the nerves. We picked wild Evening Primrose off the side of the road in Nowata, Oklahoma for making tea by picking the leaves and flowers of the plant and drying them. Evening Primrose can help with symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis which my twin sister, Andrea, has; so I am going to give her this hand-picked tea as a medicinal gift. The abundant supply of essential fatty acids in evening primrose oil may be valuable in minimizing the inflammation associated with this progressive nerve disorder. The fatty acids may also contribute to healthy nerve development when taken over time. - Jessica

P.S. Check out the lovely Wine Cup Purple Poppies we found in the pasture and the fragrant Japanese Honeysuckle we found in our back yard (we can make tea out of this)!

Marglobe Supreme Tomatoes



Pak Choy cabbage is growing very well in this pot.





These are of the same Rutgers Tomato plants from different angles. We have basil, chives, peppermint and catnip planted in between and around the plants which is just starting to sprout.



Flame Lettuce, Mustard Greens, Spinach, Paris Island Lettuce, Yellow Early Squash and Black Beauty Eggplant.



Better Boy hybrid tomato plant in the front yard (my mom bought this, I am only growing heirloom tomatoes in the backyard.)


Lemon Balm Leaves added to white vinegar to make an "Herbal Vinegar." We will use this as a marinade for chicken, as medicine, as well as a salad dressing mixed with olive oil and some other herbs.





This is some Wild Wooly Yarrow we picked in the miniature horse pasture. We will use the dried herb as a tea and as a tasty smoke. It is also great extracted into olive oil and used externally on minor cuts and scrapes (much better than petrolium junk like neosporin.)

Wild Strawberry Leaves that will be dried and used as an astringent/digestive aid tea.



Adding Mulberry leaf tea to your diet can allow you to consume more safe sugars. We picked these leaves today, but we can't wait to pick some berries; they should be ripe within the next few days. The mulberries have turned red, but we are waiting for them to turn dark purple to pick them.
