I blame growing up with that canned cherry pie filling which is vile when you compare it to fresh cherries. So I'm also one who will just eat them as-is, but this is a great way to use them in a recipe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3998452736393635440.post-60121574542660564242011-08-06T11:41:07.651+02:002011-08-06T11:41:07.651+02:00Thank you for the feedback.
