Do Cherries Make You Happy? What Do You Do with the Pits?

I like to store the pits temporarily until I can dispose of them in a suitable receptacle. The ideal storage bin? My intestines! Yep, I just swallow all the pits. I don't mind the slippery little guys going down, and have never had the least problem with that, even eating huge amounts of cherries. Although if you eat a pound or two, things can get a bit, er..., lumpy on the other side.

MsFlux - There's a great recipe for brandied cherries in Wed's NYT. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/18/dining/18appe.html?_r=1&ref=dining&oref=slogin
They'll hold for at least a month in the fridge, and are wonderful on any dessert (and I imagine pork as well, but don't eat pig).
