Personally, my cousin and I have long suspected that she's just lazy and the flavor argument is a cover.
I confess that the idea of not having to pit the cherries makes it way more likely that I would make a proper clafouti. But still, it's nuts.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

How interesting. The only time I've made clafouti was with peaches, so I guess it was "clafouti".
Tasty, in any case.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I still don't know what clafouti is!

Because books.

Me either.
I did get spam this morning with the subject line: "wrapping paper punish". Now I want to know if the wrapping paper needs to be reprimanded, or if it's coming for me with its cardboard tube.

Well, the fruit depends on the region (plum and pear are also popular), but cherry is considered traditional.

I typed out the recipe yesterday, people! In addition to linking to a different recipe!! It's a custardy fruit dessert.

I just read about the DC-area weather woes. Having had a bit of that up here recently, I'm torn between genuine empathy and wishing that the White House and VP-residences get their basements thoroughly flooded.

Oh, all right. [link] I was skimming yesterday, admittedly.

I think I need some clafouti for breakfast.
I'll have to make do with coffee and cereal.
