Looks great! A little butter... some garlic... mmmmmmm!
In Montana we use to go out and get buckets of shaggy mains (but they only last a few days unless you froze them) and some morels and a few psilocybin (personal stash)

People will forget what you said... and people will forget what you did... but people will never forget how you made them feel.

mmm... mushrooms a good portobello sautéd in garlic and butter is my fav.). the fruit of fungus. very interesting "plants", though they are the equivelant to an apple or an orange in terms of the life cycle of the organism.
when i was 19, i tried my hand at cultivating them (sh!take and some other funner kinds). it was really interesting. lots of petri dishes and isolating the fungus sample in a home-made sterile 2x2x3 innoculation chamber (penicillin and bread mold were the most common contaminants in the malt-agar jelly). it's actually really easy once you get the sterilile environment factor worked out.
all you need are:
-a spore sample
-petri dishes
-small sterile environment and a sterile knife
-pressure cooker
-lots of birdseed or other starchy grain
-a cool dark place to propogate the fungus
-flourscent lighting for the fruiting cycle
look it up on the net. i am sure there are lots of supply houses and how-to articles.
