Instagram post 2117183295757469640_386246246 Two mixed drinks based on homemade cider.  First, a Snakebite with @snakelakebrewco Pilsner (seemed appripriate). Second, the future official municipal drink of the @cityofedmonton, the River City Kir, which is dry cider (preferably from Edmonton apples) with a splash of sour cherry liqueur (preferably Evans cherry).

Instagram post 2101990336913008840_386246246 Trying to recreate a dish my Grandma Suddaby used to make.  In eastern Ontario it's called potpie, though it's not a pie, and most outside that region would recognize it as chicken and dumplings.
Instagram post 2098393141513253716_386246246 Truly blessed to have what is objectively the most disgusting mushroom growing in our garden: dog stinkhorn!  Its scientific name is Mutinus caninus, which means little dog penis. Like all stinkhorns its spores are contained in a sticky mass on the tip of the stalk called the gleba.  Do you see how the gleba here looks like poop?  It also smells like poop!  This is because stinkhorns rely on flies and slugs to distribute their spores.  Within hours of this orange phallus emerging from the ground flies have licked it clean, and it promptly shrivels and falls over.  I know this sounds like a joke from South Park but it is all too real.

Instagram post 2071326547247223104_386246246 Disturbed a couple goldenrod crab spiders while deadheading daylillies this morning.  These guys don't build webs but hide in flowers and grab insects looking for nectar.  By default they are ghostly white with red marks on the abdomen, but they can change colour to camouflage!

Instagram post 2070020624146931446_386246246 From Mushroom Fan Club by Elise Gravel.  Adorable illustrations, weirdly specific yet accessible mycological info, and humour in spades.  A must-read for any child interested in the natural world.
