You guys weren't late - you're just used to me being late. So really, I was early? I love doing the round-ups - it's a great excuse to make time to read a lot of blogs. And drool over a lot of great home cooking. Sophie - how funny! I was just suggesting to Mike that we should host a big PNW locavore potluck just after New Year's. Invite everyone to bring their favorite dark days dish and their favorite non-local "can't live without". Melinda - that's what I was afraid of. I've lived in MN, UT and WA and never seen them. Hmmm, I'll have to do some sleuthing to see if I can find a source in Eastern WA. Hee hee. You guys weren’t late - you’re just used to me being late. So really, I was early?

They're up now, at http://www.elementstintime.com/Blog.html. Your pickles look amazing. Re ground cherries: we grow them in our garden in Sonoma County, CA, but they need a long, hot summer. I hate to say it but you might not be able to grow them in the NW. Maybe you can find them in Eastern Washington, though! Thanks for doing this every week - I love reading the different solutions we're coming up with to eat locally. And I'm with Sophie - what a grand feast we'd all have together!
