 Pear Soup-1.jpeg)
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 7 oz onions chopped
- 20 oz butternut squash diced
- 3 Anjou or Bosc pears peeled, cored, and quartered
- 32 oz veggie stock
- 1 Tbsp fresh thyme minced
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by warming up your oil in a ginormous stockpot over medium heat.
- Toss in some onions and squash, and let the magic begin!
- Cover it up and let it do its thing for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep things interesting.
- Time to add the pears, stock, and a touch of thyme.
- Let that pot reach a boiling point, then dial it down to low heat for some simmering action.
- Wait patiently for about 25 minutes until the squash and pears are as tender as a heartfelt apology.
- Whip out your trusty blender and puree away until you achieve velvety smoothness fit for royalty (or at least your hungry self).
- Voila! It’s time to dig in and savor the fruits of your labor – Eat it!

Brian Gerard (Lewandowski) writes books critics call "aggressively adequate"—better than "aggressively terrible" but somehow more concerning. He once traded a MetroCard for a pitchfork on a subway platform and now uses it exclusively for dramatic pointing. He lives on a farm outside Charlottesville, Virginia with three disappointed potted plants, a judgmental pig named Trouble McFussbucket, and a wife who smiles politely at his life choices.

His first manuscript was composed entirely of punctuation marks and confused sketches. He's since published "Not Bukowski" (poems that don't rhyme) and "Slop and Swell from a Festering Mind" (essays so concerning that bookstores check on his wellbeing). He once spent three hours photographing a rare bird that turned out to be a plastic bag, and he's the only person banned from church bake sales for "weaponized brownies." Inheriting absurdism from Vonnegut and Adams, sprawling narratives from Irving, and weaponized failure from Moore, he writes about conflicted everymen struggling through supernatural chaos.
He has two new, offbeat novels waiting foran agent or a publisher: "Truth Tastes Like Pennies" and "Elliot Nessie."
He remains unconvinced that birds aren't surveillance drones.
