So I called my Bobby-boy, who called his son, Jon-Ed who just moved to Wisconsin, with a request for Morels for Joshy.
So Jon, Amanda and Amanda's mom went foraging out in the woods. They found a nice bunch of morels and shipped them to my house, ants and all.
Sweet!
Upon arrival we quickly emptied the box and washed away all the dirt, ants and whatever. 
We dried them, halved them, looking for any remaining varments, and readied them for a quick roasting.
Barb added some shallots, salt, pepper, thyme sprigs and a bit of olive oil. Then she roasted them at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
Quite a lovely appetizer with some red wine.
Many thanks to Jon, Amanda and her mom who I hope to meet someday. She also makes killer dried Apple chips.
If any of my friends in Wisconsin, Michigan or elsewhere feel like foraging, I'm always thrilled to take your extras!
