The Real Reason I Moved Back to Brentwood...


So I told everyone we moved back to Brentwood to be closer to family, but the REAL reason occurs for just a few weeks between May and June--Cherry Season! Maggiore's Fruit Stand opened Friday morning and I was there by 8:45am and the only reason it took me that long to get there is that I had to stop and get cash out. Baby has been craving cherries for 3 weeks now and I thought I would just about die before the cherries came on. I ate at least a pound between the fruit stand and home. Over half the container was gone by lunch time and my tongue was fuzzy from the acidity but it was soooooo worth it! The cherries and I go back a long time. They were just about the only reason I didn't hate my parents 100% when they moved us from Fremont out to this little hick town called Brentwood when I was the fun age of 13. It became an annual tradition for my dad and I to go and pick cherries and now it is something that I have passed on to Parker. He is a cherry fan now too!
