All I have been posting lately are Flashback Fridays, so I thought I'd better come up with something or...... (insert terrifying scenario here).

I have been asked the inevitable question, "So, why Cherryskin?"

Well, I, uh, love cherries. They are my favourite fruit. I love their short season (love a fruit that plays hard to get). I love their taste, their juiciness, the way they burst when you bite into them. I love lying in the sun reading a book and eating cherries (this is something I make a point of doing during the few weeks they are available, just so I can reminisce throughout the rest of the cherryless year). I love the way they dangle (shrug). I love wearing pairs of them on my ears. I love their colours. I love the phrase, "Pretty please with a cherry on top!" I love the sound of the word cherry -- I like saying it. I have no doubt I would love cherry pie if I ever tasted it. I love Neil Diamond's song, "Cherry, Cherry." I love cherry trees and especially cherry blossoms. I even like glace cherries.

I tried for "cherry" but it was already taken.
