I was very excited, especially since they're a type of cherry I'm not familiar with (being from Washington, I'm used to Brings and Rainiers), being mildly sweet but small and bright red. I tossed in a few black raspberries that happened to be ripe in the next bed, then rinsed the whole mass and got to work pitting.<br />I was not prepared for the little wormies. In using my tiny paring knife to take out the cherries (I, too, caught the juice), I discovered no fewer than a dozen. Realistically I'm sure I've eaten plenty of buggies in my produce over the years and never noticed, but it's still disconcerting to wonder how many of those little guys I missed.<br />The cherries are frozen, they're going to appear in some cobbler bars in the next week or so. I'll blog about it, and let you know how they come out.Z.D. Gladstonehttp://zdgladstone.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
