I picked most of mine a couple of weeks ago, too. These were the ones I left for the birds because they weren't ripe at the time. Well, the birds didn't take them, so I figured it was their loss, and picked them this morning.Steve, your pies look great. I finished picking sour cherries a couple weeks ago. Different kinds ripen at different schedules I guess.
You are so cool and creative!Then here's two of your favourites in one!

Thanks everyone for the kind comments on my pies. I have to confess that I'm not much of a baker. Like Harry, I always had trouble getting pastry to work. Lately, I've been experimenting with different combinations and found that a dough comprised of 25-30% lard, along with butter, makes crust that's both crisp and flaky. I also picked up a tip over the weekend about using vodka in the crust. It makes the dough moister and easier to roll out. Once in the oven, the alcohol evaporates and you don't taste it.can she bake a cherry pie, billy boy, billy boy? can she bake a cherry pie, charming billy? well, we know steve sure can--perfection!
