Hmm, will have to try that. I use an olive pitter. As long as the cherries are firm, it works great. (can’t say it either. sitting at my desk babbling like a dodo to try.)

Anyone who ponders such wonderous things can’t be all evil.

I somehow feel as though I should make an appearance here…😃

Did somebody say French Silk? I’ll take a slice, please.

How many people are you feeding, and how many pies will you be bringing?

Just brung the one cherry pie. Whoever gets some, gets some. I don’t normally work with these chuckleheads and am just warming up for Thanksgiving.

Before Christmas I’ll be back with my normal team and will treat them to an assortment: cherry, apple, peach, pumpkin, chocolate/frangelico cheesecake(if my recipe is sound), lemon meringue(my personal fave), banana creme, cheesecake with stawberry/kiwi/blueberry top and _maybe_ a pecan if I can be sure I won’t have to bring any of it home.

I do not share the French Silk with anyone who doesn’t roll in the hay with me.
