Cherries!!

How could you resist a huge bowl of slightly crunchy and seductively sweet organic cherries grown locally during their prime season??

Sure they are available year round, but you can definitely tell the difference in taste during their off season. Have you ever bitten into a cherry that tasted kind of like…rubbery water? Was it in December?

Though cherries are delicious on their own… I particularly like to include them in my famous fruit smoothies, and I know their famous because uhm… this random guy came up to me in the supermarket and asked for my autograph…*ahem* whatever it’s not important.

Here’s the recipe for my delish smoothies though, cherries are an essential ingredient.
