Steampunk Mushrooms

It’s been raining a lot in Boston over the past few weeks.  We don’t typically get so much wet weather in this area—I believe that’s one of the reasons the area was coined New England.  However, with all this precipitation, I heard rumor that the prefix “New” might get replaced with “A Lot Like”.

In fact, we’re getting so much rain that we seem to be growing some very rare steampunk mushrooms at Seven Cycles.  I’m guessing that someone dropped, in the grass, a few screws and washers or something. 

I’m not sure if the mushrooms are poisonous; I tried to eat one but it was a bit tough.  It did taste awfully rusty though, so I bet they’re high in iron.

It looks like the rainy season might finally be coming to an end so I’m not sure how long the mushrooms will last.  I figured I’d get a few evidentiary photos.  Enjoy.
