Maybe my waistline would be improved if I ate some Cherry Pie?

(specially for Pierce)

Not necessarily, Lanzababy, though it won't hurt if you eat a small piece and cut back on something else you might have eaten. Calories count. I often fail to figure out how many calories are in something.

re 601:

thank you very much, lanza!

I think we've moved past the "c" word, Taff. Memories are short nowadays. Within 18 hours, it will all be forgotten...

I had no idea that you might have liked Sade, Pierce, but she is one of the greats as far as I am concerned.

Within 18 hours, it will all be forgotten...???
how longs that ?

Dunno! Not sure what I was supposed to forget now anyway

Where's the ?

I was getting tired of crepes and souffles anyway.

re 604:

don't be sorry, taff!

i found a shop yesterday that actually had fresh cherries (well, fresh'ish anyway)

i bought a kilo and a half approximately and ate half yesterday and today my gout is - almost - gone

so again: thank you - and thank your mother

er, forget what

err! dunno ?

Me neither!

We need a to do some research. I could help with the eating part of the experiment!

Paul could be the chef.

I would be honored to be the

Frozen cherries should be as good as fresh, provided that they were fresh when frozen.

Come to think of it, they may have been pre-cooked, as I don't think they had stones in them. I'll have to check when I return to the UK.

Not having stones means that they were pitted.

i was able to buy some fresh cherries from egypt and i am fine - but as i said in another thread i can't be sure they really w*rk as i also took my anti-gout-pills
