Cherries :) ! ??

Today I bought half a kilo of cherries, just for me I ate a couple on my way home of course. But now they're staring at me. They want to be eaten very badly and I want to help them just as badly. So I look back and forth from cherries to NovoRapid and I have not a clue what to do.
I've been on mdl for a few months now and already foud out I can eat strawberries and blueberries without bolusing. Havent really tried other fruits exept for a small piece here or there.
The cherries will get eaten, no worries about that, and if I do it wrong I'll do it differently next time, but how do you all inject for cherries, say compared to a cheese-sandwich, strawberries or a serving of spaghetti?
Up to now I'm more a guesser than a counter with carbs and insulin, and that mostly works out right for me.

hmm there is a cherry tree next to the composts at the gardens I volunteer at. Every time I walk past my hand accidently picks a couple. They are delish and by next week will be ripe if the birds leave us any. I was thinking I needed to change my route but if everyone can drop by to help in the gardens for half a day there will be no need and the gardens will be immaculate.

that looks very yum. I guess I would have to omit the maple syrup. No option there as I have to diet control because my GP thinks I do not have enough diabetes to qualify for medication. Maybe I could melt a little bar of Mister Roth 85% chocolate and dip the cherries in that before dipping in almonds and eating with extra thick cream.

So I have eaten around 50grams of carbs without bolusing. No wonder bs shot up! Can't you eat them because of carbs or for some other reason? If because of carbs you can maybe eat a couple as part of your dinner when eating a particularly low-carb dinner?
