Picking mushrooms

I skogen bakom Kikas och Martins hus fanns massor av svampar, vilket är en av Weslies favoriter. Han och Martin var ute i en halvtimme och hittade tillräckligt mycket svamp för att vi skulle kunna laga en jättegod svamppizza till middag. Tyvärr var det inte det enda de fick med sig från skogen. Jag plockade bort 10 fästingar från Weslie efteråt! Efter detta var han inte så intresserad av svampplockning längre...

In the woods behind my sister's house there were lots of mushrooms. Martin and Weslie found quite a bit of chantarelles and porcini mushrooms in just 3o minutes, enough to make a really good mushroom pizza for supper. Unfortunately that was not the only thing they brought back from the woods. Afterwards I found 10 (!) ticks on Weslie. Needless to say, he wasn't to excited... Martin and the kids had some on them too. There was an enormous amount of ticks there in the woods, and just last week we learned that my niece Esther (2 years) had gotten Lyme disease. She is doing just fine though (thanks be to God), although she has to be on an antibiotic for a couple of weeks.
