Annoying Pop-Ups: a house log

Sure we hate ’em on the internet, but we also do not like unpleasant surprises popping up in our yard either. That means you giant crazy mushroom clump:

When we left for our daily walk yesterday evening I noticed what I thought was a pile of dead leaves knocked down by that morning’s rains. Nope, instead it was this mass o’ mushrooms that literally appeared out of nowhere in less than 24 hours. Not truly the “buy my house” look we are going for these days.

Now I consider myself to be a lively guy and I can appreciate the miracle that is nature (wow, that much mushroomage grew in simply a day!) but this bloom of ‘shroom had to go. Good thing those suckers are straightforward to knock out (although there was a fair amount of slug-like slime involved). Here is hoping they do not pull a David Copperfield and reappear again anytime soon.

Pssst- Sherry here, ten points to those who can find the hidden mushroom pun that my cheesy hubby stealthily worked into this post.
