The Cherry

Remember when fruit was seasonal and not "on-demand"? Mis-shapen, full of seeds and pips and flavour, not just selected for shipping convenience and shelf-life? Tomatoes you could hold to your nose and savour?
The last hope is the cherry! Perishable, short season, a stone to crack your teeth, but full of dark juice and astringency.

Wonderful.
