But they did bring back memories of my pre teen years; there was a huge fig tree that grew on the adjoining property but half the tree was over on our side of the fence. So we just waited for the figs to drop off, or climb up on the fence. I vaguely remember that figs were not the #1 choice for risking neighbor’s wrath, many other fruits and berries to choose from.
So any way Fran would not try the fresh figs, “looks like old worms” [does too]. was response when I opened one up for her to try.
So what to do with the figs? Just happened to have May issue of Delicious magazine near the radio, low n behold there was a recipe for fresh fig and hazelnut tart.
So with some substituting, to whit walnuts and almonds for hazelnuts and a couple of drops of Ducal Shiraz Tempranillo for Madeira all was a go. Boy did it turn out amazing IMHO. Visitor offered up that one “could not get better or fresher anywhere in the big TO”.
After the low fog lifts we are into the 6th day of sunshine, keep her coming baby.
Oh oh, just looked out the window again for weather check, low fog has turned into high fog and sunshine covered by cloud, great while it lasted.
Now [minutes later] would you know the fog has gone as quick as it came, just scattered cloud, I love the early mornings.
