The cherries should be good this year.

Our Backyard Cherry Tree

One of the best things I have ever put in my mouth were cherry freezer-box cookies that Audrey made two years ago with cherries from our back yard. She handed me one as I came home from work, and they were so good I decided to have them for dinner instead of anything else.

Last year the cherry harvest was a disappointment. Many of the cherries split open on the tree, and most were just sour. That’s when we learned that cherry trees often go in two year cycles; one year of tasty cherries followed by a year of bad cherries. This would put us on schedule for good cherries this year. We can’t wait.
