Dry it or buy it?

Dried cherries are so delicious and so expensive. I decided to see if drying them myself in my dehydrator would be more economical. Alas, 2 pounds of cherries ($6) yielded only one cup once dried. I can buy the exact amount of dried cherries at the Fresh Market for, you guessed it, $6. So now you know: just buy the dried cherries! I'll keep you all posted on more dehydrating adventures to come...

Don't you just love that isle in Fresh Market with all the dried fruits and nuts?!
Our favorite is the Seneca dried apple chips. They're crispy and not rubbery like most dried apples. They have these in bags hanging above the produce in Kroger.
