It’s Cherry Picking Time
It’s cherry picking time in Ohio. I have one lonely little cherry tree in my small orchard. I’ve thought about getting more cherry trees, but then I have flashbacks to picking cherries for hours at my grandma’s house growing up. After we spent the afternoon picking cherries, we spent all night pitting them.
I’ve been picking the ripe cherries off our little tree each day, before the birds can get them. I’m storing them up in the refrigerator for a few days. My plan is to make some cherry crisp, with the same recipe I used to make my Strawberry Rhubarb Crunch a few weeks ago. I’ll just substitute the cherries for the strawberries, and leave out the rhubarb.
Cherry pie is another favorite at our house, but we’ve been trying to eat healthier this summer. What’s your favorite cherry dessert, or dish?
