Attention foodies: Dried mushrooms available. Starfish Market now has a rack of dried ‘shrooms, from a company called Earthy Delights. If you’re excited about this, you are planning to put WAY too much work into your villa meals. Choices range from $5.79 dried Oysters to $28.15 for a bag of wild Morels.

Is this the funny Starfish story you promised? If so the humor escapes me
Hmmm.. no grilled Portobellos for us in November. Will buy a real steak instead!
Business for sale???? Are Ruth and Ron selling? Planning to live the high life in Time Out forever?????
PS – Jeff and Russ, not to scare you or anything, but you were in my dream last night! Sheesh-my head is super mixed up these days I think!

Oooh, good word, “iconic”. It’s not us, though.
It has to be this:
o An important and enduring symbol
OR
o One who is the object of great attention and devotion; an idol.
Who could it be?! Is it on St. John?

Starfish market?

I hear the best “Shrooms” are on Tortola at the Bomba Shack.
Fresh Portabella mushrooms are available at Starfish Market, at a resonable price – they are great cooked on the grill & are the closest thing to a steak for a vegitarian. The prices on the new “dried speciality rack” are just too steep for my taste.

Not that anyone would lift shrooms on St. John, but at those prices I would display them at the check-out counter in a glass case under lock & key!
No mushrooms in my spaghetti next week . . .

Interesting note regarding the “iconic” business.
I’m trying to think iconic, perhaps the Smoothie Truck? or maybe Skinny Legs? Beach Bar?

I know Moe talked a few years back on leaving island. I can never see that happening.
I could see Todd sell his part in Woody’s to his bro.
The biz’s I know for sale

Can not wait for you to reveal this one Jeff and Russ

Hmmm, I still have a business card from the “Mushroom Man” on Tortola. Maybe he just needs a nice point of sale display like this one to drum up more business?
