[QUOTE="Pielorinho, post: 817597, member: 259"] Ziggy, you rock my world. Thanks for all the information! It's sad about the chanterelles, but so it goes. They'll probably be getting into season around here around the time when I get home (although curiously, the only chanterelles I've found in North Carolina are about the size of my pinky -- you have to gather dozens upon dozens for a single meal). Maybe I'll see if the boletes are happening yet. Or maybe I'll just have to content myself with wild strawberries and raspberries. I suppose, if I think really really hard, I can come up with a worse fate ;). Daniel PS I just realized that I've been half-waiting for somebody to come into the thread and caution me against eating wild mushrooms, tell me that there are old mushroom eaters and bold mushroom eaters but no old bold mushroom eaters. But then I remembered: I'm talking to a bunch of Europeans, and (from what I've read) hunting wild mushrooms is practically a national pasttime in most Scandinavian countries. How cool is that? 'Round these parts, tell folks you pick your own mushrooms, they're practically on the phone with an ambulance before you finish the sentence. [/QUOTE]
