Pear Mascarpone Custard

The other week I purchased some mascarpone, put it into the fridge and forgot it! Found it today and the use by date was yep 13/02/08. so decided to make pear mascarpone custard for today's dessert. I did and it was delicious, enough left for another helping tomorrow. Before this for dinner I made pizzas they also were rather good (patting myself on the back) and Christine our neighbour stayed to enjoy both delights.
In fact Christine arrived over fairly early this morning, Graham decided as once again it was a super day-frosty and sunny, to start to paint some of the woodwork in the garden, the shed, the gates the fencing, in the lovely blue colour we painted two years ago. I decided to go down to the river with Christine to give the dog a run, he loved this plenty of rabbits to smell out and chase. Christine was down there sawing logs so she borrowed our wheelbarrow, helped her to upload one load and take them to her house. On the way there Ruaridh spied a rabbit and zoomed off, we called him to no avail eventually had to go after him. He was having a great time running up and down the hill behind the house chasing numerous rabbits, taking his time he returned to us.
Back home lunch then I started to brush down some of the wood that requires painting.
Didn't get a chance to read any of my book "The Echo Maker" by Richard Powers which had been part of my intent for today.
Booked the ferry for Saturday to go to visit the Begg family on The Isle of Lewis.
