Some light comedy reflects the corporate world and the "life-long" expectation. It has a light moral theme if you want to render it. Slow paced.

Mushrooms Founds

Chicken of the Wood
"Chicken of the Wood" is the common name of Laetiporus, one of the edible mushroom. See the wiki references. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laetiporus
My friend found the full bodies of the mushroom at a nearby lake. They waited until bright orange before foraging. We cooked in garlic and olive oil with a handful of sliced onion. The texture is amazingly unique, unlike any other mushrooms' textures. It really almost has a meat texture. yummy!
