Sweet Cherries!

We have a single pie cherry tree in our backyard.  Every few years we get a decent crop.  But pie cherries aren't very tasty to sit and devour.  They kind of need some sugar.  And a pie crust.  Yum! 

So when a neighbor called my parents and asked if we all wanted to come up and pick some of their abundant sweet cherries, we were excited!  We planned on doing it Friday, but with Jeffrey ending up needing stitches, we didn't make it up until Saturday. 

It was worth the wait!

Sydney approved cherries!

Bryan was able to come picking too.  He picked a bunch! And he doesn't even like cherries.  Thanks honey!

It was such an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours.  And now we have some sweet cherries in the freezer.

And my kids--who normally just get one colon cleansing a year when the plums get ripe...well, they got that process started early this year! :)

Do you enjoy cherries?
