Other seasonal produce doesn’t hit quite the same for me.

Berries come in petite little clamshells, and rhubarb requires work, but cherries to me always come with a side of gluttony. Warm weather and icy cold cherries just feel so luxurious, a little bit of excess in the everyday.

However, I am pretty particular about my cherries. I like them really firm, almost crunchy. I always check them before purchasing to make sure they haven’t softened too much.
