I invented a yummy cookie recipe by accident (tried to make brownies!). Basically take a brownie recipe but add more flour to make it consistent with cookie dough, chop up fresh cherries, mix in and then chop up white chocolate and mix in. The best cookies EVER!

Came across this while reading your archives at work today :) the archives filled up 4hrs! Thank You!!!

Hi Rosa: Hmmm … won’t cherry red a bit too dark for walls? When you finished your painting, why not post it on your blog so we can see how that looks like.

Hi Polly: Let’s plan on doing u-picks. The apples u-pick is the next big ones in fall. Have you tried it before?

I’m going to have to use that color (cherry) for a wall. It is gorgeous! Wow!

Though I am not a big fan of cherries, at least you got to see some great sights! ^_^

Hi Zee: We have almost gone thru all 26 lbs of cherries already. Glad you enjoyed them.

Hi Lotus Rapper: You’re right, Ben has a DSLR and is trying to convince me to let him buy a $1000 lens — over my dead body!

Hi Retro-Food: Cherry Chicken? Never heard of it … will check it out.

Hi Sally: Picking the cherries was fun … until I fell off the ladder and landed on my bum! Ouch!

Goodness, those are beautiful cherries. Ummm eat them? Cherry Chicken? Cherry ice cream? Cherry pancakes.

Of course, you could just freeze them whole and take them out to look at in the dead of winter.

Wow those cherries seem to jump out of the screen. I’m willing to bet Ben’s digicam is a D-SLR and not a point & shoot.

hi, brother ben,
i have a great idea on what you can do with so many many cherries that you all picked. I ate all the ones that suanne gave me..shared some with my son and mother…yummy.
they were so so delicious..also ate the cherry pie suanne made..my son too and my mum too…but we all loved eating the cherries on its own rather than the pie. the pie was just too too sweet for our palate.

never knew cherries from Kelowna would taste so so yummy.

suanne can make cherry jam from it…so easy to make and not that sweet..so yummy.

thanks as always..brother ben and sis.
