    1      C             Fresh Pitted Cherries -- *Note
 
 This recipe uses coriander, the seed of the cilantro plant.  It has a
 mysterious and exotic taste. 
 
 *NOTE: or 1/2 lb unpitted cherries.  Diced plums also work well.
 
 Preheat oven to 350 deg F.  Grease a 9 x 5" loaf pan.
 
 Cream the butter and sugar together.  Add eggs and extract.
 
 Soft dry ingredients together and add to wet ingredients.  Stir in the
 cherries and mix until combined.
 
 Spoon batter into loaf pan.  Bake for 45 - 55 min.  Insert a skewer or cake
 tester; it will come out dry when the bread is done.  Cool for 10 min in
 the pan and turn out on a rack to fully cool.  This is best eaten the next
 day.
