    I have to admit I'm a total cherry lover. I cannot get enough of them during cherry season. Fresh cherries at the height of ripeness make me incredibly happy. I particularly love Rainier Cherries. There's just something about them that makes me weak in the knees. If you're a huge cherry lover too this is the round-up for you!

      I've really enjoyed your fresh cherry series. I've eaten a ton of cherries but rarely cook with them so it's been good for me.

      Wow that is one serious cherry recipe round-up! I love how there really is something different, and unique with each recipe:-) I am just ending my trip in Michigan, where cherries pretty much rock here! I was in heaven for 11 days:-) Hugs, Terra

        Thanks. I'm actually just across the border from Michigan so we have wicked good cherries in abundance right now. I just came home with rainiers for tomorrow's dish. I love cherry season.
