Cherries: not the pits.

I impulsively bought 10 dollars (also known as 2.5 lbs) worth of cherries today at the grocery store. Blame the store display near the exit - it was all red and shiny and it could not be helped. As I checked out, I couldn't figure out why my bill was so high until I went home and reviewed the receipt. Oh. Wait, that was 2.5 lbs worth? Yikes.

I love cherries. But can I take on a giant bowl full of 'em before they go bad? Jury's still out, but one thing's for sure: that's one joyful challenge if I ever heard one.
