Anyway, today success is mine in the form of homemade puff pastry - yes at last a quick and relatively easy method. Loaded with butter but eat in moderation. I would be glad to give details if you wish. The last piece is ready rolled and refridgerated for tomorrow's Philosophy Group Meeting. Sweet or savoury, freshly baked it's delicious. Cid Ladies,

Miles,

Was that defeat I hear you say … we are women of substance … the year is young and the hunt has hardly started! Anyway, today success is mine in the form of homemade puff pastry - yes at last a quick and relatively easy method. Loaded with butter but eat in moderation. I would be glad to give details if you wish. The last piece is ready rolled and refridgerated for tomorrow’s Philosophy Group Meeting. Sweet or savoury, freshly baked it’s delicious.

Trompette de Mort gets its name from the trumpet shape of the mushroom and I suppose the French believe the black colour to be 'deathly'. Watch out for more French lessons in the coming weeks!! Cid, I think it best if you concede defeat over the Snipe, I cannot see a happy outcome to all of this, the marsh is no place for a lady of distinction. Miles Ladies,

They look pretty camouflaged to me. We might smell them though and the treck may be more pleasant than the Marsh. Don't know about Miles, we would have to tempt him somehow. Cid,

Frankly we stand more chance of spotting a mushroom than a slow moving snipe ... although as you rightly point out the old trumpets of death could be tricky... Cid Elsie,

Christine,

Was that ‘mortified’ by the trompettes de mort? :) Do you think Miles would run a fungus foray for us girls if we promised to be on best behaviour? Frankly we stand more chance of spotting a mushroom than a slow moving snipe … although as you rightly point out the old trumpets of death could be tricky…

If I spotted any likely trompettes, I would have to bring them to you to try - they scare the hell out of me. But then I would be mortified if something happened to you! Miles,
