JUST In Time 4 Valentine's Day...

But friendship is the 

breathing rose,

with SWEETS in every fold.

- Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.

 When you have LOTS & lots of happenings

throughout each day... it's a BLESSING

to be able to resort to a quick way!

NOT that I prefer the quicker way of

baking; gardening OR creating a home... BUT,

in order to offer a SPECIAL 

treat, sometimes we have to lean 

that direction.

THESE... cherry bites are for instance...

I'm like my PRECIOUS... Momma...

in many ways, especially when it comes

to homesteading duties.

Her go to for any dough rolling 

would be an ole' flour towel, even though

the pastry mat waited inside her stone crocks,

she preferred her way!

Often times... she used the 

vintage, oatmeal glassware to cut her

rolled dough.

Here you find me using an old biscuit/cookie

cutter... BUT, I have been known to follow

her footsteps with the glassware.

I've used both ready made... Pillsbury Pie Crust

& homemade in THIS easy, peasy sweet... due 

to the flakiness of homemade... I choose

the ready made with it's pliable 

consistency & thinness. 

After cutting out all your pastry circles...

spoon in cherry pie filling by ONLY 

using one cherry per shape.

Pinch sides as shown in photos... & tuck

into a glass baking dish... I prefer vintage, 

as always to create more of a HOME feeling.

Right before dish goes into the oven...

I sprinkle granular sugar over the 

cherry pie filling... 

Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes...

give OR take depending on individuals oven.

Remove from the oven... & sprinkle 

with sugar AGAIN to add CHARM & more sweet to the taste!
