This sounds absolutely awful, I would have been wrecked! Glad you recovered with a story to tell.

All I can think is that Mia must have a cast iron stomach. Holy cats, I was having sympathy gut pains just reading this. β€œEarthworm castings” πŸ‘€

Hilarious to read, perverse poison preparation, secretly drugging people! I’m glad you lived to wit it’s about it. Tip off guys wearing bibs sans shirt likely serial killers or pig farmers. I look forward to your next adventure.

Communion with the forest floor definitely pushes the envelope when considering dining options. The maitre d’s shirtless bib overalls lit the envelope on fire. I’m happy you reached a new connection with your commode, though. It’s all about relationships these days.

Outstanding. Midsommar meets The Menu. When pop up becomes pop out. I laughed when I misread that one line, β€œyou can taste the terror, can’t you?”

Thank you, as always, for the belly laughs. May you and your toilet bowl continue to search for the meaning of life.

All mushrooms are edible, but some only once. Thanks for the read. Am happy you survived. Next time you get that urge to go to a pop-up, just donate that money to a good cause instead.

Hilarious πŸ˜† the funny thing is, the one time I had magic mushrooms, they were scattered on top of pizza. πŸ• So be careful.

And to think I bought delicious hamburgers made of flank steak with rosemary.

180 grams each.

I fried them with some soy souce to add more taste, a slice of tomato and a little mayonnaise on a slice of bread and voilΓ .

That was dinner. I made two of them.

Oh and a glass of milk.

I'm always so engrossed in your stories Michelle! Love them... And man, I'm glad you survived this insane experience :) the shirtless bib-guy named Sage might have made me turn on my heels...
