Well, if that's any consolation, then I had to look far and wide in Edinburgh, too. I finally found some at the upmarket Waitrose, whereas back home I could just pop to my mum's garden..<BR/><BR/>Thredahlia - haven't made fake lingonberry jam yet, will try this autumn maybe? Will you share your granny's recipe?<BR/><BR/>Jasmine - thank god for IKEA. The only crisps I'd ever eat are the sour cream & dill ones, also available at that Swedish store:)<BR/><BR/>Ips - welcome to my blog!<BR/><BR/>Faith - thank you for your kind words. I'm coming to realise that the abundance of berries - both wild and cultivated - that I'm used to is not universal after all...<BR/><BR/>Jenjen - thank you!~<BR/><BR/>Johannes - the pleasure was all mine:) I mean, who would have eaten all the food if you and Urmas hadn't been around??<BR/><BR/>Scott - good stuff indeed. Apparently carrots & oranges yield an apricot jam?<BR/><BR/>Antti - you can buy 200 grams of Finnish lakat for 40 kroons in Estonia (saw some yesterday). You can only find imported ones thHow does that compare with your local price?<BR/>And yes, leipƤjuusto ja lakkahillo (or leibjuust ja murakamoos) is a combination made in heaven. Sorry, on/in the clouds..<BR/><BR/>Paz - thanks!Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1157027913992171932006-08-31T15:38:00.000+03:002006-08-31T15:38:00.000+03:00Very, very nice!PazVery, very nice!<BR/><BR/>PazAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553242334935269790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1156999991146587412006-08-31T07:53:00.000+03:002006-08-31T07:53:00.000+03:00Hi Pille!

I have about as much access to gooseberries as I have to cloudberries, unfortunately, so I won't actually be making it soon, but I just love the thought! I have to make do with stocking up at IKEA when I go. I think I bought four jars last time. Also, I tried a gooseberry jam from there for the first time and liked it as much as cloudberry. <BR/><BR/>Great post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1156781389388009842006-08-28T19:09:00.000+03:002006-08-28T19:09:00.000+03:00Hi - I've just discovered your site through the Ja...Hi - I've just discovered your site through the Jamming session we just had!
