A friend gave me freshly picked cherries, so I turned them into vegan hand pies.
This was my first time working with puff pastry, and I spent the evening learning as I went. Walking to the grocery store for ingredients. Mulching the front garden. Planting olive trees. Pitting cherries at nearly midnight. Folding each pie by hand.
These were made as a thank-you gift for someone who showed me kindness recently, and I think that made them taste even better. š
