Cherry ripe.
This beautiful cherry greeted me by the front door of the couple I met on Thursday. The colour of the fruit was stunning, I don’t think my picture does it justice. The fruit looked almost translucent and reminded me of those maraschino cherries you get in a jar. I only use them at Christmas. I put them in a cocktail I make!

Apparently you know the cherries are ripe when you see the blackbird on the tree!

I made this mosaic of my October pictures 1st – 15th in Picasa. What a mixture, flowers & food!

More than 1/2 way through the month & I’m still on track!
