I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Honeyed Pears for Two

 Fancy dessert Friday ..... just making Friday a little special!


Ingredients:

2 firm Bartlett pears

4 tsps butter

pinch of salt

2 pinches of dried thyme

fresh mint sprigs

1/4 cup honey


Peel two firm pears. I had Bartletts that didn't seem like they were ever going to ripen. Bosc would be a good choice as well. Remove the cores and place the halves in a baking dish, core side up. Fill each with 1 tsp of butter.

Sprinkle with a little salt and thyme and add a couple sprigs of mint.
Drizzle honey over the pears and bake at 425°F for 1 hour.
Turn over half way through baking and spoon some of the juices over top.
Then flip back for the last few minutes to caramelize.
Serve with more fresh mint sprigs and if you like try whipped cream on top!
