We are over run with figs and I just love it when they come in. We share them with the birds, raccoons and squirrels, but not because we actually want to. So far this year we have frozen them, dried them, made jam and roasted them with olives, honey and feta cheese. It is keeping us busy to keep up with the fig trees, but you know we will be sorry to see them go. I am glad we have some to use in the winter. Oh - the Copper Grape Leaf Bowl holding the fig preserves is available in our online...

It is time for figs and we have two trees producing almost more than we can use. Since it is a once-a- year treat we indulge ourselves with these roasted figs with cheese and drizzled with honey. This year we have some extra special honey for our long awaited figs - at least the ones the birds and raccoons don't get. A friend from New England sent us some High Haven Honey and it is wonderful.
