A friend recently gave me pears from their tree and I made this recipe. Not only was this recipe easy (even with working with fresh ingredients) but the results were fantastic. Someone who sampled the pears said that they could eat this for breakfast, lunch and dinner.... That's 5 stars in my book! Thank you Kree for sharing!

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career.
Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
