Pizza and Pears

We have a pear tree in our backyard and two years ago it grew a TON of pears...

(Fall 2008)

Last year we didn't have very many and would only eat what we could pick off the tree here-and-there. This year, when we saw that there was an abundance of little buds on the tree, we were on top of the game. Here are a few clips of our adventures canning pears at our "Pizza and Pears" party (this may have to be an annual event):

Tyler, Aliyah and I wore green to our pear canning party


Of course we need cans (and a few other supplies)


We couldn't have had our pear party without such great help!


Canning pears


Delicious! Looking forward to using some of these in a few months to make baby food!
