Cecil, hopefully the fig gods will understand a little humor.
Figarita, i did not have the heart but when you said you wonder what the insides look i had a good laugh, l trust me i was ready to fix up the insides after you said that but did not have the heart to carry it that far. ; )
Scott , yes indeed, my friend told me of course he did not mention it right away but anyhoot gosh the smell is terrific . Oh Scott i would sent them to ya but you i think they would not do good in the mail so im sorry but i have to eat all the good ones, including that one that had the oleander bud in it , i just pulled it out and ate the whole fig, should have seen my cheeks bulge ; )
