My friend has a seckel pear tree, so today on my way home from work I stopped y to see if her tree had any fruit this year. To my delight it did! I didn’t have a ladder with me so I couldn’t get too many but I did get a good amount of “ground pears.” (Being very selective, avoiding the fruits that had already been snacked on.) I have my pears displayed on the kitchen counter, waiting to be eaten. My sister and I will probably can some whole with maple syrup, and I can’t wait to make a pie!

Fortunately, your “can’t wait to make a pie!” is appropriately balanced by my willingness to accomodate your desire by eating a pear pie (or at least some of it).
Cute little guys…love their flavor!!
