We are all nursing colds post Thanksgiving, so between that and being busy, I have been neglecting my blog!!
My husband brought the nasty cold home, and I was the last to succumb last nite.
I have been downing all types of hot tea with honey and lemon, and chicken soup, trying to ward off the germs.
At this point, I am sick of tea (I know, such a blasphemous statement in a Tea on Tuesday post!)so I am posting about some non tea yummies made a week or so ago!
I found a recipe for pear clafouti on another blog a while back. If you are that blog - please give yourself credit!!! I can't remember where I found the recipe - but it is GOOD!!!!
I managed to eat most of the cake by myself - love red pears - altho no one else in the family is a big fan of pears. Despite my best efforts, the cake did not want to come out of the pan too well - but, as you can see by the last photo- looking less than perfect did NOT take away from the taste!!!!
looks yummy! hope you get to feeling better soon!
ReplyDeleteSo very sorry to read the entire family is sick. I hope you get better soon. It's quite refreshing to read each of the Tea Tuesday blogs, because I learn so much. I love the look of the iced-peppermint mochas, but they made me shiver from the cold. Please get well soon, and have a great Tea Tuesday drinking whatever makes you happy!
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention, I love red pears. I would have been right there helping you finish that clafouti, regardless of the look. Personally, I thought you did a great job of removing it. I also thought the texture looked a bit like flan in the baked shot.
ReplyDeletebummer about having colds...hopefully that will be it and you're done with that for the season!
ReplyDeleteyour non T post is VERY tempting and tantalizing...yum yum yum
take care dear Pat and feel better soon

ReplyDeletePeppermint mochas are just fine by me! It's ok to get sick of tea!! And your pear cake would be very popular here .... I especially love upside down cake recipes! Happy Tuesday and take care of that cold Missy!
ReplyDeleteooh sorry to hear you're unwel, Pat. Thanks for sharing this...TAke Care..
ReplyDeleteI love pears and that cake sounds luscious. I think I would have put parchment in the bottom of the pan, knowing the pears would want to stick.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel lots better soon.
So sorry to hear you are sick. I too just got over the same thing, had it for Thanksgiving. Your cake sure looks great to me, and red pears are luscious! Thanks for the sweet visit, and I am so glad to have met so many new artsy tea drinkers!
