I gotta Pear!!

Doesn't have the same inflection. When I saw my first pea, I ran in the house shouting "I GOTTA PEA! I GOTTA PEA!" and my mother said "well THERE'S the bathroom!" Not the same here but I finally harvested my two Pear trees. I think I have FINALLY gotten in the same BALLPARK as EG and Granny. I harvested 135 lb of Pears!


I also harvest 2 1/2 lbs of cucumbers and peppers and stuff, and 3 lbs a few days before that. I gotta figure up how much the total is! 175 lb total! wow! hehehe I love pears.

  5. I swear I have already posted replies but I guess not!

    EG-My next door neighbor has 2 pear trees and he gave me some of his. I made pear preserves from that. It tasted like Apple butter. It is GOOD! So...not sure what else to make with them! lol

    Momma-thanks. I have no idea what I am going to do with them.

    Ribbit-Thanks! I was shocked myself. And there is still about 1/3 left on the trees. Either I couldnt get to them (with a very long "lopper" we call it) or they were too small to get.

    Granny-LOL You're funny
