    Hmmm ... might make one of those when we refurbish the kitchen :) I could amaze my house guests:

    "Can't find the mushrooms, they aren't in the fridge"

    "Have a look in the third drawn down"

    There again, they'll just add it to the list of "Why Kristen is "weird" :(

      I've tried to grow them once before without success....but now you've got me started Joolz:dbgrtmb:
      Needed more compost so while i was at it got a couple of button mushroom kit and a chestnut mushroom kit.....

      Johns idea of 'kitchen drawers' made me think.....at work there is a skip full of beaten up pine bedside drawers.....off i tootled to work....had a rummage....found a set that wasn't too bad....bit of tittivating and it wouldn't be out of place in my conservatory:thumbsup: ....went into the office to ask if it was OK to have them.......blimey what a carry on ...."i'll have to ask the area manager on Monday" was the reply......they don't normally allow it:huh: ........told them not to bother it didn't matter:mad:
      I'll find another home for my mushrooms..........

        So they'll pay for the skip to take them away, but won't give them away? Beggars belief ...

                I cheated once - I had a kit here for my Granddaughter to grow and she was getting quite upset because they weren't growing so I went and bought some button mushrooms and stuck in - she was so excited.
