IN SEASON: by Pat Vaughn
I had a wonderful cherry crop this year (I beat out the squirrels) and was
looking for this recipe, which I used to make quite often and hadn't in
awhile to try with the sweet cherries. I had typically made it with berries
but the cherries worked very nicely. Blueberries are just starting to get
ripe so will try them next. ENJOY!
