Thank you for sharing Melody. This made a nice sweet and sour pie. We enjoyed it very much.

My first ever cherry pie and made it from cherries picked from our tree. So simple once the cherries were pitted (has to be an easier way for this) but loved the sweet, tart flavor and the texture was so good and not runny and messy. Perfect.
