  1. Your star-spangled mini cherry pies looks so juicy and good~ perfect a 4th of July celebration and portion controlled too! What a gift that your cherries were pitted! I can not tell a lie, I can't believe you have a George Washington cherry tree watering can :)...love the vintage post cards~ Wishing you a delicious Independence Day!

  2. I"m echoing Mary above. A George Washington watering can? You find the perfect props! I'm envious of your vintage post cards. I need to find a few George Washington cards for my mix. The mini cherry pies are calling out to me across the miles. Boy do they look delicious. ~
