Cherries Are Fun!
Everything about cherries screams fun. First, they’re only available in the summer and summer is definitely fun. And, their deep purple colour is positively jubilant, the sweet, lively taste is a delight, and the pits are just an added fun factor somehow. There’s great freedom in eating a cherry and spitting out the pit into a flowerbeds, or directly at your friend. As a kid, we’d squeeze the pits between our fingers and flick them at each other in that prankish, yet semi hostile kinda way…definitely summertime fun.
Right now cherries are plentiful so it’s time to gobble up as many as you can. Here is a super easy to make recipe that’s always a big crowd pleaser. It’s definitely worth a try.
