Ooo, click me, click me!!
First day of picking! Here's Kevin, his sister Joyce, and Nova. Actually, I think Kevin had already picked some before this, but I'm not counting it as there is no evidence, lol! These were barely ripe but we had to stay on top of them. The birds certainly were!
I love this bowl. I think I got it at an auction.
I kept thinking of Bubba Gump Shrimp... making Cherry pie, cherry crisp, cherry cobbler, cherry smoothies, and even dried cherries........
Before we new it, it was pickin' time again. Oh, seeding cherries is the PITS!! I never wanted to see another cherry again at this point.
But they sure were perty and a wonderful vintage RED. Click me too!!
That's Kevin and my mom, picking away...
Nothin' like retro red cherries! I should dress for the occasion! A favorite vintage inspired dress from Charlotte Russe. $11.00!
I found the sweater at Charlotte's too, for $3~

Ok, ok... let's EAT!
How 'bout some cherry pie?
Now I must admit, these two pie pics were two separate pies made on different days!
Like to try some dried cherries? These remind me of Craisens. They're great in salads. Some were dried plain, and some were soaked in Tuaca first~ Those were good for snacking!
Or perhaps I could interest you in some cherry crisp? My pie and crisp recipes are from the good ol' Better Homes and Gardens cookbook with the red gingham cover. Sometimes I make the crust, sometimes I buy them.
Click to see the little dish, it's a fave of mine. I love it because of the black and white striped "ribbon"
Cherry smoothie anyone? I didn't get a photo of ours, but this one sure is cute so it will suffice!
Kevin's *CORE* smoothie was a mixture of the following... sorry folks, we don't measure 'round here~
Life is a just bowl of cherries, hope you're making the most of it!
