Even though there are three of them, if this was a battle, cherry would lose. They're the ones I'm least satisfied with in this arrangement. To my credit, I was really tired by the time I started the cherries and I was sick. I planned to come back and finish this when the first layer dried. However, I left the cherries on the counter and in the space of 48 hours, they had gone to mush. :( Next time, I need to get those pink-orange cherries instead of the black ones -- I like the taste less but the appearance more.
