Carrie and Danielle: Locavore Dinner Feasts: A New Reason to Give Thanks

  • Rick_Juliusson · 1 year ago
    yummm,, makes me positively hungry, and deeply thankful to be married to the author of this scrumptious article. September-October really were crazy canning months, but my memory of them is of warm, cozy evenings in a steamy kitchen working side-by-side, laughing, talking, visioning - it's a rich fulfilling way to live, and a rich fulfilling diet.

    I am a locavore newbie. My heart sings, my appetite soars reading your words. Thanks Sarah.

    Sarah & Rick...I was thinking about you two while grocery shopping last night. I put back the can of mandarin oranges from China. I hunted down the tomato sauce canned in BC. I thought about Little House on The Prairie and everything it takes to get a mango to Vancouver from the Philippines in the dead of winter. You two are a tough act to follow. Thanks for that.

    I'm taking baby steps in this world and feel excited about what's to come.
    This year I made pickles and relish for the first time and I LOVED it. I can't believe how satisfying it was. Thanks for the inspiration.

    once you start, it gets easier and easier. now i can throw on a batch of caramelized apple butter without much thought at all.

    And the deeper you go with this, the more glaringly obvious your food choices become. It is no longer a choice, in my mind, really. I no longer crave strawberries in january. I have lots frozen in the basement, and those are always there if i need them. I walk through the aisles of the stores and feel only sadness that our food supply has come to this. My belly is full and happy with the bounty of this beautiful place I life.
