That evening I glanced back at the TV as Bella poured half a bottle of the finest brandy into her bowl of cake batter, I waited for tinselly anticipation to land like snowflakes all around me, but I felt nothing. Even when she produced what she described as a winter landscape for European cheeses, sprigged with holly and a frosty snow scene, I failed to get my fix. Ooh, this is a juicy one, she said, biting seductively at a maraschino cherry she’d earlier described as divinely kitsch. She swallowed the cherry whole, giggled girlishly and raised a flute of champagne. Why have cava when Champagne is sooo much more bubbly? Cheers! she said, taking a large sip of vintage Krug. Sue Watson

Here’s an idea let’s get over ourselves, buy a cherry pie, and go fall in love with life. Tom Robbins

My sour cherry liqueur is especially popular, though I feel a little guilty that I cannot remember the cherry’s name. The secret is to leave the stones in. Layer cherries and sugar one on the other in a widemouthed glass jar, covering each layer gradually with clear spirit kirsch is best, but you can use vodka or even Armagnac up to half the jar’s capacity. Top up with spirit and wait. Every month, turn the jar carefully to release any accumulated sugar. In three years’ time the spirit has bled the cherries white, itself stained deep red now, penetrating even to the stone and the tiny almond inside it, becoming pungent, evocative, a scent of autumn past. Serve in tiny liqueur glasses, with a spoon to scoop out the cherry, and leave it in the mouth until the macerated fruit dissolves under the tongue. Pierce the stone with the point of a tooth to release the liqueur trapped inside and leave it for along time in the mouth, playing it with the tip of the tongue, rolling it under, over, like a single prayer bead. Try to remember the time of its ripening, that summer, that hot autumn, the time the well ran dry, the time we had the wasp’s nests, time past, lost, found again in the hard place at the heart of the fruit. Joanne Harris
