This Laccaria sp. purple mushroom with frilled gills is living in leaf litter. There's no way to describe the lovely quality of the purple, because of the fleshy quality of the texture.
I noticed the lovely lavender color under the mushroom top, but didn't take photos of what was underneath. It's in my Fungus Among Us album: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=...
