   A few of these have been coming up in my yard each year.  They tend to   
   be small, with a very distinct yellow tint.  The aroma is a rich sweet   
   almond, like biscotti.  I picked one the other day (there was only one   
   to pick), and cut it into small slivers to eat raw in a salad.  It is   
   quite possibly the best mushroom I've ever tasted.  Although there   
   wasn't much to utilize, the flavor was incredible, outshining all the   
   other ingredients in the salad; iceberg lettuce, vidalia onions and blue   
   cheese dressing.  I've only ever found it in my yard.  But, maybe I   
   could make a slurry to inoculate piles of horse manure cleaned from the   
   stalls next door?
