I love pears, especially in a dessert. Pears and apples are definitely in season right now. A neighbor was so nice to share some of her pears from her crop this year. I think you will love the tastes of Fall in this yummy apple-pear crisp recipe. The smells of Fall are amazing.
Pears have so many health benefits. For example, one pear provides 15% of our recommended copper requirement. The antioxidant in pears protects us from Alzheimer’s disease as well as helps keep the immune system strong. We definitely can use that this time of year. The Vitamin K in pears prevents blood clotting and improves blood circulation. For more information on the benefits of pears click on the link.
If you prefer pears without all the added sugars, you can certainly do that or you can bake them in the oven for a little tender pear.
A pear-apple crisp recipe is pretty simple to make. All you need to make this recipe are three pears and three apples, lemon juice, flour, sugar, brown sugar, oats, butter, and cinnamon. You can literally use any crisp recipe that you like. I found an easy one on by celebratingsweets.com on Pinterest and you can check that one out here.

Focus is very important for moving forward. As I shared on Monday, I get distracted easily especially by the alerts on my phone. However, I equally allow my past to distract me. Leave your past mistakes for a promising future!
Past mistakes should be buried…
We miss out on what God has for us when we focus on our past mistakes. Ruth Graham, wife of Billy Graham states, “Every cat knows some things need to be buried.” I chuckled when I read this because it reminded me of how many times, I have let my past hold me back from moving forward. I will never leave my past mistakes and look to my future by continually dwelling on things that I cannot change.
I love this quote by Clara Barton founder of the American Red Cross says, “I distinctly remember forgetting that.” When you are reminded of your past mistakes just say, “I distinctly remember forgetting that.”
Focus more on a promising future…
God doesn’t want us to beat ourselves up over our past mistakes. He wants us to move forward and continue with His purpose. So, leave your past mistakes for a promising future!
“Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead” Philippians 3:13
Keep moving toward your future!
Love,
