Drain syrup from pears into a heavy 1 quart saucepan; set the pears aside. Add the brown sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon to the syrup. Bring to a boil over a medium high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add pears, stir slightly and then simmer about 5 minutes more or until heated through. We serve two halves per person in stemmed dessert dishes as a fruit starter for our breakfasts during the cold winter months in Minnesota. A dollop of whipped cream added to the top of each serving at the last minute adds a wonderful flavor.

Actually, we do not serve the atypical German breakfast, but do have some entrees that have the German or Bavarian theme. Below is the recipe for our Bavarian Omelet. Omelet Ingredients 3 eggs 1 Tablespoon water ¼ teaspoon salt 1 Tablespoon butter Put first three ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and beat with hand-held beater until completely mixed and slightly frothy. Set aside. Filling 1/2 cup breakfast sausage, cooked and drained 1/3 cup chopped onions, cooked until carmelized 1/3 cup finely grated Swiss cheese. Garnish Fresh tomatoes, peeled and diced  1/3 cup Orange slices and a strawberry Butter Croissant Heat at medium heat a 9-inch non-stick fry pan and melt the butter until it sizzles. Tilt the pan to grease all areas. Pour in egg mixture and cover for one minute. Remove cover and take a heat resistant spatula and slightly lift the edges of the egg, a portion at a time, allowing the wet egg to spread out and go under the cooked portion. Cover, again, for about 30  45 seconds. When the egg is set, layer each ingredient of the filling on half of the circle of egg in the order given. Season with pepper to taste, and then take the spatula and work up edge of the empty side of the egg. Fold this side over the filled half. Cover and let the omelet cook about 30 seconds. Remove the omelet from the pan by tipping the pan onto a serving plate. Sprinkle with tomatoes. Arrange on the plate the orange slices, strawberry and croissant and serve with a smile.
