FIGS FOR DINNER

Yesterday I spent the afternoon trying to dis-entangle the grape vines from the netting which has protected them from the birds.  The vines have responded really well to the spot where they were planted and must be receiving enough water from the irrigation.  Most have now reached the tops of the poles and I am bending them to go back down.  I will need some more instructions on these vines.  It was time to head back to the house - enough squats for one day so I crawled in under the net on the little fig tree.  What a treat to find these wonderful ripe figs and be able to eat them for dinner knowing no insecticides had been used to produce them.Yum!
