Just found a HUGE MUSHROOM in my yard

Hey GEORGEM, you about nailed this shroom down. Here is a reply from a guy who wrote a book or two about North American Mushrooms. Thought you folks would enjoy knowing I might be eating this bad boy.

Calvatia craniformis: the Skull-shaped Puffball. A fine edible IF solid white inside! Always follow these important safety rules:

The Skull-shaped Puffballis one of the great, common edible wild mushrooms featured in my best-selling book Edible Wild Mushrooms of North America (http://americanmushrooms.com/ewmona.htm).

Happy hunting!
