Prunus Cerasus 'Morello'

Oooh I think there might be enough cherries for an unprecedented second clafoutis 😃 #gyo #cherry #morellocherry #morello #clafoutis

Oh lucky you I love a clafoutis Susie and they look fab for one! 🍒😋❤️

Thanks Mich, Katy & Glyn. It's been abundant this year. And the birds seem to be off their game 😄 @mich @gjones

Evening Sue @susieg this is just not fair another one & I bet you have it for breakfast. Hope you enjoy it & please think.of me with the last mouthful 😂😂😍😘

😂😂😂 that made me laugh out loud Suzie 🤗 soz for taunting you with cherries 😳I may well have it for breakfast too but Mark is on to me so I'll have to share it 🙄. It's not fair 🙄🙄 @jadojado29

Afternoon everyone. Freshly picked sour cherries for clafoutis this evening. Now macerating in kirsch. Mmmnnnn. #gyo #cherries #cherry #morello 🍒

ooh that sounds fantastic 😋😋😋

Wow! We've only got 3! They look lovely 👍

Fabulous! Were they netted to keep the birds off?

It's my annual treat. Although there might even be two lots this year 🤞🏻 @charlottejhurst

certainly looks like a bumper crop 😚😚😚

😄 I think I managed to get to most of them before the birds did. But it's a war of attrition @sal1

Thanks Jeff. No they weren't actually. I have to keep an eye on them & grab them before the birds get stuck in though, but because they are morellos they don't colour up that much so my theory is that the birds are waiting for them to get to black cherry colour. Could be completely wrong of course 😄 @jeatacake

Yes, they're making up for last year I think, when the birds got most of them 😄😚 @charlottejhurst

Although we've only got 3 that's 3 more than last year 😂

Oooh sounds lovely 😋😋😍

Evening Susie @susieg wonderful my mouth is watering 😍😘

Morning all. Some blossom from my cherry tree before it all disappears. #blossom #morello #morellocherry #bestofapril

Morning Susie such a shame they don't last 😆

Morning Susie. You've gotta love blossom 💕

Morning Susie! Love all of the variety of blossom at this time of year! 😀

Morning susie , that's lovely 👍

Morning Keely It is isn't it. So beautiful while they're here though 💕 @Keely

Morning Lexi - oh you do, you do ! Wonderful time of year 💕 @lexijane

Morning Ian, me too. So lovely after a long winter. @bigemrg

Morning Julie. And thanks very much. The birds let me keep these, unlike the cherries 🍒 @juliesgarden

Morning Susie, beautiful blossom and a gorgeous pic 👌🏼

It's a great season. Love it 😍❤️

Morning lovely and thanks very much 😊 @rachelbrooks

The birds have had most of my morellos for my clafoutis so had to supplement them with shop bought. D'you think anyone will notice?

Notice? Notice what..? @susieg they look delish and that's my favourite pudding 🍒🍒

The huge discrepancy in size, colour & sweetness? No? Excellent! @rachelbrooks I'll post you some!

Nope @susieg can't see a thing...🙈 might get a bit squished coming through the letterbox! 😂😂

Tee hee! 📦📮

@rachelbrooks well the last time I made one I forgot to put the cream in 🍷🍷so it turned out quite flat 📮

No, because it will taste fantastic, do you won't notice

@rachelbrooks @bookworm68 well I think I got away with it. Thanks Raymond Blanc. He steeps the cherries I kirsch, the naughty Frenchman! Delicious! 🍒

Ah, I see! 👀 imbibe with alcohol and detract from rogue imposter cherries! 🍷🍒😂😜 sounds tasty 👏🏼

Yes exactly! I find that alcohol is often the answer to many things.

😂😂😂

The question is: will the birds get to them first?
