peel and orange juice.Did George Washington cut down the cherry tree to
make gathering cherries for a pie easier? We'll never know, but in later
years George still loved cherries. His wife, Martha, wrote about how to
store summer cherries for Christmas tarts, keeping them fresh in a barrel
of hay, stored under a feather bed.
