That adventures of the....wait for it.....wait for it....

CHERRY PITTER (or OLIVE PITTER) but for the sake of this blog, I will refer to it as the CHERY PITTER!

I'm not sure if this makes me lame and just further proves that I'm getting older but last weekend my aunt did a little supper in honor of Keith and I getting married. I'll get back to the 'lame' and 'getting older' part in a minute. But why so late in the game (it's only been 7 months) would someone have a supper for us, one might ask - because my grandma said so, that's why.lol. Now, let's not get carried away. It's not like we got all dolled up or anything. On the menu was veggies with hot dogs or hamburgers - a meal fit for a newly wed couple and guests (it works, right?). lol.

Anyway, my dear old uncle Darcie and Aunt Elaine got us a cherry pitter among a few other great things. Stay tuned for my next adventure with the MELON BALLER! And no, it's not as kinky as it sounds but BOY am I ever going to have fun with it when I get around to trying it out.

So here we are, back at why I'm calling myself lame AND old. Oh, and before I forget, I want to say thanks to Darcie and Elaine as they have included me in a tradition I'm very proud to be part of. The tradition being, no bride should be without a CHERRY PITTER or, a MELON BALLER! :)

Now, I'm no Gordon Ramsey in the kitchen but there's two things I like. One, being cherries and two, being things that make doing other things easier. The whole point of using a cherry pitter is for making pies which would be the case if I were, oh, let's say Betty Crocker. BUUUUUUUUUUT, I'm not - I'm me and I like being a dork and using my spare time to do things like documenting my every second of pitting the cherries.

Oh whoa is me!!! Where is the 21 year old blond Kim that would be out till 2am the night before and too hung over to do something like this AND the Kim that would make fun of this 31 year old Kim that documented her Sunday evening of cherry pitting?!

You know what the really sad part is?! I didn't do this for PIIIIEEEE - I did this for my teeth. WHICH, just adds to the fact that I'm getting older whether I'd like to admit it or not. Those cherry pits can be hazardous to my teeth and I have no shame in that. Okay, maybe I have a little shame. Now excuse me while I go take a nap. :p
