My Favourite Pastime 
I love fresh figs, unfortunately so do the birds. They take a bite out of each fig and leave the rest to me.
Not to put any pressure on you, but any chance of a recipe at the end of each of your informative post? 🙃
A lot of times yes, not in the case of brown turkey fig. It’s just that I never link the recipes to the information. I shall start doing that. Have a great weekend.
