Hi Alex,
Your recipes seem so YUM!!! I’ll try out the Cheesy Pear tart.
I stooped over from MBC.
These are so pretty! I love pears and cheese together in a recipe. Yummy!
I like that you can use canned fruit! Makes it great for any time of year.
Sounds yummy!! Thanks for sharing!
Sweet and simple, that’s how I like it! Thanks for sharing!
I’m making this tomorrow to take with me to a moms’ night out. Thanks!
These were a big hit! I was nervous b/c I didn’t get to taste them before I left- I took them straight out of the oven and to the party. But, they everyone loved them.
Mine weren’t as pretty as yours, though. I so want your book when it comes out. Can I do a giveaway on my blog of it, too?
