Well, she did most of the creative work on this one. I take no credit,
other than coming up with the suggestion to combine duck and cherries.
By coincidence, we had a nice Spanish wine already opened. It was a
garnacha, which I'm guessing is similar to a grenache. Very cherry-like
in flavor, a perfect match.

I really like most any duck recipes, but it's not always been that way.
There was a time, when I was very young, that I could not stand the
thought of those critters. My parents' first house was across the
street from a duck farm. File this away: never pick a house across the
street from a duck farm. In particular, never live across the street
and down-wind from a duck farm.
