Now I don't know where you all live but if you are in a cherry growing region or just crazy love cherries you need this in your life. I pitted 10lbs of cherries yesterday. It wasn't difficult or messy. My hands didn't get stained. You just put a cherry in each spot and press down the top. The pit pops into the catch jar below and bam! 4 freshly pitted cherries. Doing 4 at a time is a huge time saver. Drunken Cherries or homemade maraschino cherries are an amazing cocktail garnish! Pinterest those. You won't regret it. I promise!
