Yum Lor!


Hi Mama and yes, yummmmmmmmmm... I love this dessert but then I love cherries.


I LOVE cherries,too ! Making this real soon !


The picture is gorgeous, and the recipe is simple enough, I'm going to tweak it around just a bit, as I don't use margarine and I'm going to use a spelt flour. Can't wait as I've never baked with a cherry pie filling before.
