Summer Into Fall - Breathing In and Breathing Out!!
The figs have been a pleasant surprise. We now have six fig trees, different varieties and all have their own unique taste, texture and colors. All beautiful. Along with our thin skinned Osborn Prolific fig, we have a fig called a "Bordeaux". A small fuit with an exraordinary sweet and slightly tart flavor. A couple peeked out earlier in the season just long enough to give us a taste of things to come. Very promising!
Melissa lightly baked some figs in a little butter and our first honey of the season and used it as a topping on a hot milk sponge cake. Delicious beyond words!!
