A perfect soup:) As Dominique calls it.."Soupe Aux Cerises"~
Ingredients are simple..
Some red wine too of course..
and le tour est joué..
Delicious summer dessert on the porch..

This sounds wonderful, Monique. Cherries are a favorite and we should see them in the market in a few weeks. I can almost taste this over ice cream.
