Figs

PICKING your own ripe figs and enjoying them in the garden is one of life's luxuries.

However, it seems the local parrot population also has the same idea, so I've been keeping an eye on the bounty.




Yesterday I was rewarded with two lovely ripe figs which i ate sitting on my garden chair, while the chooks clamoured around my feet, impatient for the skins.

While i have lots of yummy-looking recipes for fig cakes, like oysters, i feel they are best enjoyed au natural and as freshly gathered as possible.
