I need a recipe that uses a lot of pears. I've got a BIG pear tree that usually does not produce much here in TX but now has several thousand big pears on it (I just put in a deep well this spring). Now I need to find some uses for them. BTW, I retired March 15 and have been off list until now whilst doing world traveling. But as a seven year member of CHlist, I'm back and rarin to roar. Rael and Doug, youse guys still here? Tom in Dallas, really enjoying life!!!
