The kids picked cherries for me this evening and I pitted them with ease!

I made myself a cherry pitter out of an old small fork.

I had seen a quick video on YouTube : http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LevzJ7X1A_Q&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DLevzJ7X1A_Q

When I first watched the video, I thought, “How could that really even simplify pitting cherries? How much quicker could it actually be?”

I mean really? Cherry pitting can’t be THAT hard.

Well, I found out it’s not that hard, but it is a pain in the rear, and time consuming, with a knife! Not to mention messy!

So I figured that I should spend a few moments of my time and make a cherry pitter, after trying to cut out about half a dozen cherries.

So glad I did! The rest of the cherries took me about 3 minutes to pit! Way easy! And nicer looking finished results too, and no real mess!
