Dear Figgy

 My fig tree produced only a handful of edible figs this year but I still love her.


There were lots of itty bitty figs but they never ripened. I had to seriously fight a squirrel for the few that were ripe.


 I gave them a good chop...


 ...and a good boil in some sugar and water and heated up a little jar.



 When it looked like jam, it was done.


 This little bit isn't going to last long. I'm planning on making some homemade crumpets in the morning.
