Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

I just eat cherries in front of the tv, out of a bowl..

Exactly!

My other solution to what to do with cherries is hand them to the Queen of the Jam Economy. Then the cherries become tasty things in jars, and are available throughout the year!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

bought plants today and set up my window box on the stoop railing. Coral zinnias, peach verbena and purple scaevola! Found some fantastic orange/peach kalanchoe for my blue-green flower pots and tucked orange marigolds amongst the existing campanula. Need to steal a shovel from work to pop in the ferns and lady's mantle into the hill around the patio. I want to turn it into a shady grotto with a recirculating cascade starting near the ridge. I'll need to work the street corner for that one.

Pretty flowers!

Cherries, put them in a bowl and eat them.

If I eat 4lbs of cherries straight out of the bowl, I'll turn into something out of The Witches of Eastwick. Something bad.

Because books.

Well, you don't have to eat them all tonight!

It's weird, but cherries are something I usually really *only* eat straight up like that. Everything else I'll put in a muffin or a pie or a quick bread. Weird.

I am going to try making jam! Emeline and I are going to go pick strawberries tomorrow.

I think that's why I don't have ideas. And most other berries, I could at least put on my cereal.

I have a mesclun, cherry, and goat cheese salad recipe, but that's only a cup.

You could make a wine or cordial - I'll bet that uses a bunch. Or some sort of sauce or compote.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Anyone have a gadget for removing cherry pits rather than the pain in the ass hand method?
