Did I mention that I love figs?

Jilda was cooking dinner and I had some spare time on my hands. While cutting grass yesterday, I noticed that the figs were getting ripe. I didn't stop and examine the bush so I only saw a few. 

Rather than drive myself insane sitting on the couch and smelling the aroma of corn, blackeyed peas, and ham coming from the kitchen, I headed for the fig bush.

When I got there, I realized that I had underestimated the number of ripe figs. Within a few minutes, I'd picked a gallon of perfectly ripened fruits. I also ate about 20. 

Did I mention that I love figs?

  1. I'm not sure I've ever had a fig...do you make anything else with them? Would they grow up North? Just wondering!

  4. Not a fig fan, but they are pretty. My girl loves 'em, so they must be good! (funny that and they ain't chocolate!) LOL

  5. You are welcome to my share. A childhood task of picking up rotten fallen fruit has permanently put me off them.
