Poke. Jab. Ah!
Those bartletts we bought last weekend at the farmers’ market were hard as rocks, so they’ve been sitting on the counter in a closed bag. They’re very close. They’ll be perfectly ripe tomorrow. I’ll eat some raw, and poach some. Pears are a very nearly perfect food.

I should have picked mine a week earlier than I did…they’re a rotting mess now, but I can salvage some. I got a few Asian pears from my little tree that are even nicer.
