Cherries!

[janestarz]

If there is one fruit I love, it's cherries. Of course I try and be a good girl and have an apple each day (and this greatly benefits my health!), but you can wake me up in the middle of the night for cherries. Cherries, cherries, cherries!

We actually have a cherry tree behind the apartment building and the cherries are near enough that I can use a broomstick to pull the cherries down if I wanted to. I don't have a clue if they're edible, and who planted the tree in the first place, but there's also an apple tree and a berry shrub nearby, so I sense a whole theme going. Could be someone just really loves birds, but we get so few birds here... and the cherries aren't ripe enough to eat yet.

But one of the largest super market chains in the Netherlands had a special bonus offer on cherries. 500 grammes of cherries for € 2,-. Now how can I say no to that? I bought my first pound^* yesterday and I went back for three more. I bet I could eat two kilo's of cherries in two days, but I'm not going to try. They are great to munch on while watching Battlestar Galactica! They're better than popcorn!

So I've got cherries and you don't. Neener neener neener!

*) 500 grammes equals one pound in Dutch. Not quite the way most pounds work, and I don't mean GBP.

good luck with eating them cherries and beware of the sucky bombshell ending of Battlestar Galactica.

You know, I really didn't need to know about the 'sucky' ending of BG. We're just starting on Season 2.

Season 2 is still good. You'll love it. ^_^

Pas op dat je de pit niet doorslikt anders groeit er een kersenboom in je buik ^_^.
Het heeft tot ver na mijn 10e verjaardag geduurd voordat ik niet meer in die mythe geloofde.
Wat denk je als je vader ineens met blaadjes uit zijn oren door het huis loopt ^_^.

I hate cherries. I have eaten too much of them in my life I guess. My parents have cherry trees. Four of them. Do you want to go to their holiday appartment for a week when they're ripe next april?
