That hack of using a sturdy plastic straw to pit cherries instead of buying a dedicated tool is genius, especially since roasting them really does bring out such a rich flavor. Even though my work revolves around running Sophia Watson, a playful baby shower site where we help parents predict their little one’s arrival using traditional Chinese and Mayan methods based on birth and conception dates, I have always maintained a separate hobby for seasonal baking. Your summer fruit recipe definitely gave me a new excuse to get back in the kitchen and experiment with whatever produce looks best this month.
