Default Mushroom Kit Harvest

My son gave me an Oyster Mushroom kit for Christmas. I followed the instructions carefully and waited, and waited, and waited...alas, no mushrooms. I put it outside on the patio table and splashed some water on it from time to time, but still, it didn't do a thing. But yesterday, I walked by the kit and noticed that it was sitting cock-eyed and the plastic bag that covered it was bulging. Yes!!! Mushrooms!!! After all this time!!! There were two mushrooms and one was wayyyy bigger than my hand. We chopped them up, along with some shrimp, for an omelet this morning. So worth the wait!

Now I'm optimistic. I have another mushroom kit that has yet to produce. Maybe I'll have more mushrooms. Geesh! I'd love to hear about some excellent mushroom recipes.
