Inspiration: Cherries


Happy Monday!
Today, let me take you on a little road trip.

We're going to Terhune Orchards in
Princeton, New Jersey.

We're going cherry picking!

If you've never gone fruit picking before,
we'll need to pay a little fee &
we each get a bucket.

Here are the many cherry varieties available.

Look at the trees!
They're overflowing with the
reddest, ripest cherries!

There are yellow & orange ones, too.

I think I picked about 2 pounds.

Wash them & they're ready to eat!

But what happens if you've got too many cherries?
Turn that blah dilemma into a TADA!

Here are some great breakfast ideas
that are tasty, healthy and you'll
get to use up those cherries
rather quickly.

Add them to a bowl of muesli.

Pair it with some warm oatmeal.

Or use it as a topping for your yogurt & granola.

Please come back tomorrow for
more ideas inspired by cherries!
