When I have access to my mother's fig tree, most of the figs make it into the house, but they never make it into the fridge.

As I look at them... and can't stop eating them, I realize that this is a balanced meal... there's protein in the nuts, greens and fruit, and just a bit of carbs. So I can eat without guilt.

In a week or so my tree will be producing them faster than I can eat them, then it will be time to haul out the dehydrator... if I partially dry them I can keep them in the 'fridge, takes a couple of months to get them all eaten but that way they don't go bad.

Be careful how many you eat in a day - they are a natural laxative!

Indeed... not as much as they will be once I start dehydrating them and snacking on the result. (Think prunes) Fiber in one's diet is a good thing!
