Boletus Calopus - October 05-04 - My Birthday

This is one of the nicer ones in our forests. He gets quite big but is without any major interest on your table's dish.
He is considered as non edible, despite of the fact that he is not poisonous. He is for many persons a strong laxative, so when ever you find one and intend to taste it, get a few rolls of toilet paper at the local store first. :)

I was not sure if I should post this one or a bottle of Champagne since today is my birthday. But, since there is no reason to celbrate when one gets older, I think this to be the better choice


other sizes: small medium large auto

This one is very bad, really ! I stop here because the critique is easy, the art is difficult...

Happy Birthday Lou, the champagne should be drunk to celebrate that you can still do so! Many happy returns.

happy birthday Lou, today! I hope you bring out the champagne at home and not the other thing.
Reminds me of an old aunt who used to live with my family when I was a kid. Every saturday she occupied the toilet for a very long time. My farther told us wondering kids that she was having a party inside with something called laxatives. And I, being observant at all times, noticed that she looked real happy about that party, when she came out! (but I was told I couldn't try some laxatives :-) and she wouldn't speak about it....)

Thanks for the image, my first thought was , "Did you eat it ? ". And HAPPY BIRTHDAY !, a year has passed, wisdom gained, and you have shown us many things. So "Here's to you" have a great day, and many more of them.
