Notes: I made this once when we were living in Tar Heel. Thad had brought home a bag of pears someone had given him. I wasn't sure what to do with them, so I tried this. I gave a jar to our neighbor, Raymond Bedsole. He came back for another jar. He said it was just like his mother made...and I think he really meant it. I took that as the ultimate compliment. I wasn't even sure what to call it, but Raymond called it marmalade.
