I tried to write a nerd/jock wallflower-ish romance, but my nerd (inevitably) turned out too arch and knowing to really stick to the trope. Well, that and the jock ended up a golden retriever type. Oh, and they ended up making OnlyFans-style content together. But other than that... 😂

Bree there should be some sort of 24/7 emergency helpline we can call to say "please don't let her buy a meat slicer, she genuinely needs those fingers"

I want to say the texture is akin to a Northern Spy apple, when cooked. Soft, but still holding its shape.

Alternatively, a pear chutney is even better if the pears are inclined to break down quickly. I used to have a good crockpot recipe for that, but lost it somewhere along the way 🤦♂️

Basically, yes! I don't mind a bit of texture difference (in fact, I prefer to have some firmer lumps amid a smoother puree) in a pie filling, so I'll often mix apple types so I have some which break down and others which hold up more anyway. The pear flavor is much more subtle, though.

They sub really well for apples in crisps/crumbles/pies, when they're a bit older. Much sweeter that way, I've found.

My "relieved, then instantly suspicious that They're Up To Something" reaction says a lot about the world right now. Or maybe just that I'm old and cynical.

There will always be other coffees, and other times with the laptop. Nothing quite like a little purring friend putting their whole weight on your thighs.
