Q: How does an elephant get down from a cherry tree?
A: It doesn’t, it gets down from a duck.

Cherries, fontina and pecans sounded like such an intriguing combination to me that I knew I had to give the recipe a try.

Wow! Intriguing and absolutely delicious. Oh, and super easy, too. And only 5 ingredients.

Just cover chicken breasts with cherry preserves and some onion powder and the oven does the rest. I adored the way the fontina tasted combined with the cherry. So good. Buttered green beans made a simple side that goes well here.

Being a Vermonter, a song titled ‘New England Love’ would, of course, catch my eye. It also happens to have caught my ears.

“We fight with a whisper
As New England lingers
We fight with a whisper
And in this flood, we’ll find each other”
