OK, my mother would soak mushrooms (morels) in salt water, then strain off the bugs and what not through a dish towel, coat them with a mixture of milk, egg and crackers and then fry them in one of those heavy black skillets in lard. That probably cured everything, didn't it?
How are all of you doing?

If there is one thing I am well versed on, its toxic gas. Probably explains why I always giggle when someone says Uranus.
And followed by a "Ive been LOSING weight!!"
I cannot believe you are a fungus eater. Just thinking about it give me the shivers.
My favorite to eat are chanterelles in a bacon potato soup. Elephant Ears May be over morels for me as well.....
Maybe because I find those more than morels.
Just cannot do it, I have seen these things grow in a shower at the high school Gym. YUCK!!
That conjures up a real bad image... and taste ! LOL....
So I hit a spot in Lafayette county and my families farm in Carroll country on Saturday. Found 4 medium sized greys in Lafayette and about 25 small greys in Caroll. All were found on oak trees. It always amazes me how far behind Spring is even just 20 or 30 miles north. If the temps and moisture rebound quickly, I've got high hopes for Carroll county!!
If you all are ever in Lee's Summit, James A Reed conservation area has a bunch of Willows around the ponds that produce oyster mushrooms. Deep gills that hold batter really well. Tasty shrooms!!
YES I use morels on pizza.
Chantrelles are a higher class of mushroom. Steak houses pay a premium during the season. I am fortunate to have a good spot here on the homestead. Pick 1 out of every 4.
@RawMeat @shoot90draw have you ever had the motivation to grow your own? Two of my buddies grow various types in wood(drilled holes)and have moderate success.
Shiitakes Oysters etc.....They seems to have good success growing in cut wood(have to cut it late winter etc...
We had snow last night in Mercer County. Nobody care about mushrooms at the moment because the weather's been crappy. That said, we're ready to go track the little bastards down. 
I've grown oyster mushrooms before. Very easy to do. I bought a kit and it also had wood with drilled holes. I have never see or read about anyone successfully growing morels though.
This is what I come back to!?!? A bunch of comedians making half-assed attempt at jokes?? And youre darn right THATS NOT ME AND IVE BEEN LOSING WEIGHT!!
Consider yourselves lucky that I cannot get out to have some nice little "chats" with you all. But when I can....

So I am nearing the end of day 3 with a complete and total loss of smell. Did you experience that at all? I've been reading that many asymptomatic and mild cases experience this and I gotta say, its unlike any loss of smell/taste I've ever had.
Normally, total loss of taste and smell is accompanied with a stuff nosed and the inability to breath. I have none of this. I noticed a slight bit of sinus pressure and the ever so slightly scratch throat on 4/30 and 5/1. After having done an excessive amount of yard work and mowing earlier in the week, I assumed allergies. The morning of 5/2 absolutely NO taste or smell but the scratchy throat is gone. No fever or cough.
Follow up. I got tested this morning and got my results an hour ago. I am positive.
It started with lite sinus pressure and a slightly scratchy throat last thurs-fri. Saturday morning. BAM! Total loss of taste and smell. I've noticed some headaches and had diarrhea the last 2 days. The only constant has been no taste and smell.
So tomorrow marks a week I've been showing symptoms. I'll give updates as they (hopefully dont) develop.

Hang in there and I will be praying for you.
I travel for a living and I am one of those that think I may have had it way back in February. My sense of smell is still occasionally acting up. I have self quarantined myself twice thru this whole ordeal.
Please get well.
During your self-quarantine you can view some of our favorite football documentaries. I suggest Rudy. Its a heartwarming tale set at one of my favorite universities. Anyone else have suggestions for a good doc?

I do own All the Right Moves on blu ray
Keep hanging in there...a co workers daughter and son in law got it, they are both healed up. The son in law was really close to getting admitted to the hospital he got really bad, but his daughter never had any symptoms that she could tell. But it took her almost an extra week to kick it. They live up in Ohio.
Now here is a shining example of what it takes to be a true Honorary Doc Guy!!
About the same. 5-15 marked my 2 weeks of first showing "symptoms" and 5-16 was the 2 week mark for "serious" symptoms. Today was my 2 week anniversary of testing positive.
The morning of 5-2 was when I totally lost the ability to taste and smell. I had been making a slow recovery, with the ability to smell slightly ahead of taste. Both seem to have plateaued in recovery these last few days. I've had a few other symptoms sprinkled in since 4-30 but the loss of taste and smell has been the only constant.
I'll gladly take not tasting and smelling over not breathing and being on a ventilator though!
Rudy is a total fraud. No one turned their jerseys in. The stadium wasn’t chanting his name. Just his parents and a few people sitting with them. Most of the other players thought he was an arse clown. All of this info came from Joe Montana. The movie makes Dan Devine look like a jerk when he was anything but.
Rudy was a loser who couldn’t hold a job and spent years desperately trying to get a movie made about himself. Then he tried to be a public speaker. My daughter saw him speak when she was in HS and said he was horrible. Fraud.
Nice to know you have a deep hatred towards Rudy and an odd obsession with Gerry Bertier.
If I hadn't lost my ability to taste and smell, I probably wouldn't have never known I was a COVID stat either!

Hence, the term "heartwarming tale." Rudy was like a documentary about football that wasn't actually factual.
Perish the thought..
Oh I've had several 2 or 3 day long symptoms during all this, but nothing out of the ordinary.
The highest my temperature ever got was 99.4F and that was only for like half a day. I had 2 days of lite sinus pressure, a slightly scratchy throat, and a non-regular lite cough. Those were actually my first 2 days of symptoms.
Sooooooo everybody still good?

Still kickin' in Jackson County. Hoping my earlier bout with COVID will help with any sort of "second wave" this fall.
