Some of our quart jars of pears ready to go in the cabinet.
It’s pear time at the Spears house! I got started peeling, coring & putting up the pears. Almost had one batch completely finished when Jim asked if there was anything he could do to help. He offered to peel & that sounded good to me. He asked about the apple peeler so I got it out for him. He fooled with it & got it to working. So then he was off peeling pears. Then he would give them to Sarah & she would do the touch up peeling. When I got them, I cut them in half & cored them.
Kept the syrup going to cook the pears in as we got a batch ready. Personally, I like to use the light syrup so they aren’t so sweet. We did 3 batches of pears & then it was time to take Sarah to her piano lesson. Not bad at all. We now have 12 quarts of pears sitting on the table ready for us to find someplace to put them up until they’re wanted.
