Maybe not the most beautiful, definitely not the largest figs around…  but they came from our own tree, and that makes them the sweetest figs we’ve ever had!

I quote Barbara’s words here:

A Taste of Yellow 2009 drew entries from bloggers in 18 countries.  From Australia to Switzerland….. from yellow fruits to yellow grains……..with eggs and yellow vegetables……you baked, stirred, blended, chopped, grilled, froze, jellied…..and gave us over 80 yellow dishes to excite our tastebuds.
