Cherry picking




What do you do with tons of cherries? First you pick them, then you stone them and then you make them into pies and crumbles. After that you put them in bags and give them to the neighbours. I would like to say that this is what I did all day yesterday but that would be a fib. Darling hubby and youngest son spent most of the day up the tree or in the garden. Then they made a scrummy crumble and sorted the rest so we could freeze them or give them away. We need to clear the tree before the starlings come and vandalise it. Last year we still had loads of cherries and about 100 starlings flew into the tree. You couldn't see a single bird but it was shaking as they pulled all the cherries off.
