I think we both know why there’s such a large jar of nutmeg on hand and it has nothing to do with Costco. You’ve never posted a recipe for hotwings have you?

Damsel,

I love this post. It’s now bookmarked in my favorites! Thanks!…and thanks to your sister!

So, I need to tell you that someone asked you a question on your mint post that you did on our blog. It’s in the comment section…I thought you could do better answering than me.

Thanks!

Mariel

Awesome! I HATE canning pears in any form or fashion, but the zest and cute measuring spoon have enticed me into considering pear butter. I’ve done apple and peach before, and this looks yummy!

And love the substitute teacher bit. you make me smile!

I started putting my ‘butters’ in the oven on low heat – 250 -ish, and stirring it every half hour or so. I use 13 x 9 pans or other low, open pans so the liquid evaporates and it thickens quite nicely, without all the stirring over the oven.

Damsel, your sister is a hoot.

Love this post! My neighbor has a huge pear tree that is covered with fruit that apparently they never use. It just falls to the ground! So I’m planning to kindly offer to take the pears off their hands. (Well, I guess I’m offering to take the pears off their tree.) Pear butter sounds divine.
