How Creepish is This Mushroom?
Aug
19
Some people find the face of the Virgin Mary imprinted on their French toast.
Some people read the messages in a cup of tea leaves.
I find signs like this in my sink when I leave an old spaghetti bowl to soak.

By the power of Grayskull! (That goes in the faux swears list. Did you see Hot Fuzz? They said it a couple of times and it cracked me up.)

Woah!!! Wild find. Great shot too! It would have been scooped up and in the bin before I noticed it if it was here. Not because I’m ultra tidy….just ultra unobservant! (is that a word?)

How timely! I went to AC Moore yesterday, and it’s festooned with Halloween stuff.
I’m not all that impressed when someone finds Mother Teresa in the peanut butter or Jesus on the kitchen cabinet (both true stories). If, say, George Clooney’s likeness was found on a piece of toast or something, then I’d get really excited.

Save it. Hang it on your door for Halloween and then you won’t have any trick or treaters. Nasty little beggars…

Creepy! It reminds me of the time we found letters on our freshly died easter eggs. They had been dried on a cookie cooling rack and some of the die had come off in certain areas. When we were putting them away, my brother discovered that the only letters represented were the letters in the word ‘HELP’.

PS: Would your dad be interested in sharing his skin cancer story for use in an upcoming educational book on skin cancer?
I remember your sister Heather saying something about it on Margaret’s blog back in 2005/2006.

Okay, someone quicker than me already left a reference to HeMan’s nemesis so I’ll just have to be content with saying that is a pretty creepy ’shroom.

With 8-years of Catholic school under my belt, I have been rigorously trained to find Mary’s face in nearly an food product, even ice cream. Although these days I’m just happy when said food product has not formerlly been in someone else’s tummy.

That is one seriously evil looking mushroom. I’d never be able to get my kids to try mushrooms if they all looked like that!

It’s the sauce that clinches it. It would not have looked as cool if it had been in the remnants of an alfredo or clam sauce.

@ Susie K,
By the power of Grayskull is originally from a children’s comic book/ tv cartoon, where the princely hero turns into super hero He-Man and gets a really cool tiger and sword when he screams that line. You have got to check out the program sometime- can’t believe I used to really enjoy that when I was young. Grayskull is the castle of the super-hero.

Creepy mushroom face!
In a strange bloggy coincidence Superhero Journal posted a photo challenge requesting “mysteriously appearing faces” the very next day. I don’t think either of you read each other’s blogs so it seems to have been a true coincidence!
Hope you don’t mind if I post a copy of your picture at my site as I failed in finding a mysterious face of my own!
