I enjoyed this wild card prompt for Flash Fiction February.

Flash Fiction February!

Today's prompt - 'They would learn to live their lives upon a fleet of ships. There was little hope of ever seeing dry land again' - sparked an unexpected journey into the forest's own survival fleet.

Flash Fiction February!
From the prompt 'Imagine a character who knows that they are evil and fully accepts this trait,' we explored something different - nature's unapologetic truth-tellers.

In the #PNW, #truffles favor the Douglas Fir stands so it helps to know how to identify these trees.

Douglas fir trees have flat needles, the same color on both sides, soft to the touch, and fragrant. The bark is a reddish brown color accented by ridges running vertically up the trunk.

❄️ Snow in the PNW forecast! While locals might groan, this truffle hunter is delighted. Snow acts like nature's blanket, protecting truffles from deep freezes while letting them experience that perfect cold snap for peak quality. Alaska-born me loves it twice as much! 🍄

Stunning snowy road through a forest of white branches, with sunlight filtering through trees.

Anniversary dinner.
For the record...while I love sushi, I did NOT like the mackerel!
#foodie #foodsky
A variety of sushi and sashimi arranged on a blue ceramic plate with a traditional pattern. The selection includes nigiri sushi with salmon, tuna, and white fish, specialty rolls including one topped with unagi (eel) and sesame seeds, another with salmon roe (ikura), and one with crab meat. There are also California rolls and other maki rolls visible. A small white ceramic dish of soy sauce is placed on the plate, and the presentation includes traditional garnishes like pickled ginger and what appears to be microgreens. The dish is photographed from above on what appears to be a granite or marble countertop.

Proof of last night's insanely good truffle burger...

#foodie #homecooking #foodsky #truffle
A gourmet double cheeseburger topped with black truffles served on a blue and white patterned plate. The burger features two thick beef patties with melted cheese and visible black truffle shavings on top. It's served on what appears to be a brioche or white bun with fresh tomato slices and arugula leaves. On the side of the plate is a fresh salad garnish with shredded cheese and sliced tomatoes. The burger is photographed from a slightly elevated angle, showing the juicy layers and premium toppings in detail.

Just doing what we love 🐾❤️
Black truffles for dinner.

What should we make?
Burgers...pizza...Mac & cheese...risotto?

🌲 MacGyver's forest finds become pizza magic. YUM!

✨ White truffles dancing with wild mushrooms, peppery arugula, bright lemon, and a kiss of honey

Reality of teaching truffle hunting: weather watching becomes your new hobby. Today's lesson → tomorrow. Sometimes you just have to roll with nature's schedule 🌧️🍄

Toasting to autumn with mocktails & my husband's culinary magic (those truffle mashed potatoes though - featuring our extraordinary truffle dogs' finest finds!) Grateful for family who journey to us & understand why the pups need stay home days 🍁✨ #KitchenWitchery #GratefulHeart​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Five hands raising autumn-themed glasses with fall leaf designs for a toast over a Thanksgiving table. A crystal bowl of mashed potatoes and a dish of cranberry sauce are visible on the gold tablecloth below, along with a small candle in a glass holder. Decorative glasses are filled with what appears to be a mocktail garnished with cranberries and herbs.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
