Let’s be honest. Pitting sour cherries is a sticky affair. You will get juice under your fingernails. You will accidentally spray a jet of red liquid onto your favorite white shirt.
This is a badge of honor. Wear it proudly. You are now part of the cherry-pitting tribe.
Fun fact: sour cherry juice stains are notorious. They don’t come out easily. So wear an apron, or accept that your kitchen looks like a crime scene. Own it.
