This ia a beautiful, light, decadent and festive dessert. if you have not tried poached pears, you really need to! I made these one time a long time ago for freinds who came to dinner and they raved about this dessert! It is actually very easy, if you know me, that is a must but they are also very tasty, Low Cal and have a "wow"...
