        I'd love to try that!  Right next to my work is a fruit stand... 
well... more like a "farmer's market" and their produce is wonderfully 
priced! Back when cherries were $2.99 a pound... the farmer's market was 
selling the same stuff for .89 cents per pound... it was great!
                                        Thanks for the info!
