Something from the kitchen...finally!

This week I was forced into doing something with our tiny harvest of sour cherries. Liz's ultimate frisbee friends came last weekend for their tournament and just could not resist picking the sour cherries from our two new trees. They proudly came in with about 2 cups of little cherries which I put in the fridge until this morning. Having just seen a recipe for cherry crumble in this month's Cooking Light which called for 2 pounds of cherries, I attempted it anyway with my 2 cups. the result was amazing. I took a piece over to Connie Thomas while it was still warm. I think she ate it before I was out of the driveway. It reminded me of my very first sour cherry pie which was baked by her former neighbor, Kathy McLean, many years ago... let's just say it was before Hannah was born. Anyway, although it lacks height, it doesn't lack flavor.
