  • Will someone please tell me what kind of cherries this recipe calls for? Marrochino, bing, baking, something else I'm not aware of? Thanks!
    PS With as nice a resource as this is and, considering human error and technical difficulties, there are sure a lot of whiners out there! What about the "holiday spirit?" Lighten up people! It's a recipe.
