Love pears! Love hazelnuts! Go ahead and use the pecans - I'll make sure that the Hazelnut Commission members keep their jobs!


I can't wait to try this! Love pears.


My Grandfather used to pick hazelnuts in the woods. I used to help him pack them in clean pantyhose to dry. Do you think I would know what a wild hazelnut even looks like these days? I think the hazelnut boards jobs are safe with me. My English teacher however should have been fired.


Two of my favorite things, all right; I've got some pears ripening in the fridge.
