i can't get enough of them

oh, fall, how i love thee. the grandest season for all things comforting, cozy, and downright lovely. from the warm spices to the golden hues, i am swooned by your rustic elegance.

and the pears. oh, your gracious bounty of sweet pears! red and yellow, brown and green, the variety of  this luscious fruit makes my heart skip a beat. i find myself caught in a battle against time - the lists of pear treats to bake with the limited days of this season. pear cakes and breads. a roasted mix-in for oatmeal. thin slices savored with bleu cheese. pears drunken in wine. the possibilities are endless!

i am a glutton, i admit it. but what a way to indulge with the finest fruit at our fingertips!
