CATHIE'S PEAR JAM image

Our farmers market had a great crop of pears priced at 3lbs for $1. They were small but very sweet so I decided to make jam out of them. Couldn't find a recipe that I liked so I started throwing things into the pot and the result was wonderful. Served warm this would be great over ice cream or waffles.
