Wow!!! Looks so good. I'm 16 and I LOVE to bake!!!!! My mom is my best taste-tester and we both adore cherries! I've made her cherry cookies, granola bars (used dried cherries and they were ah-mazing!), turnovers, but my favorite if all time is cherry pie! It's a classic and it's so delicious!!!!

Sometimes when I eat cherries, I get the same itchiness on my tongue as I do when I eat shellfish. Strange.
