Awesome! And cherry pie

Two letters from my oldest penpal, Amanda.

From Hannah

And from Rusty, she always uses such great stamps.

And now... I got these sour cherries from a co-worker who has a tree in her yard. What could I do but make a pie?

I tried the advice I got of using a hair pin to pit them, but soon figured out that the cherries were soft enough that it was easier to use my fingers.

Here it is finally baked. It was so so delicious! I shared it with Clay and my cousin and his girlfriend who spent a night on their way out to Oregon.

I will never be the same again.
