in a pear tree

i have mastered the poached pear. today we had family over for an afternoon brunch. I wanted to try something new and poached pear came to mind. my husband always warns not to try new reciepes when hosting a dinner, brunch or anything (i typically agree with that)...but i had to try it, i wanted it... and boy was it lovely. normally you can pair this wonderful dessert with marscapone, crème fraiche or Devonshire cream, instead I did a dollop of chocolate... simply divine..... you can find this wonderful reciepe here... enjoy!
