have yet to find any mushrooms…and its not been warm enough yet… lack of time trying to work every hour I can get… very tired… taking vitamins and some antibiotics.
Finally, someone who knows some shrooms! To most English-speaking people, "mushroom" is a synonym for Champignon, the same way as "magnets attract metal". The ones considered in Poland to be the best, seem not to even have a name in English. I'm talking about Boletus edulis, Leccinum, Xerocomus (bay bolete?), Suillus.
Other delicacies include Macrolepiota (Parasol), oyster mushroom and Lactarius deliciosus (saffron milk cap, though it's easier to find edible fly agarics than this among the many similar ones)
Marasmius are safe and easily recognizable LBMs abundant in short grass, that no-one gathers because they're merely edible. Just toss the hard stem.

Ugh, I can't believe your mother gave you drugged mushrooms when you were a little kid. :( Some people lack the most basic of parental decency. I'm glad you made it through childhood.

Locally, we actually have Death Caps. They look a lot like a particular sort of edible mushroom used in Asian cooking. They are NOT a good way to die.
