Fig Tree

Good Tuesday Morning to everyone, Was out in the yard watering and desisted to share my fig tree with all of you. I planted it two years ago and it has taken off like wild fire..It's one that at the end of the year dies all the way back and comes back double in size the next year.. I love figs and was so happy to find one that I can grow in Indiana.... 





I have a great recipe for stuffed figs and will share it with you as soon as they are ready to pick.... It's going to get hot once again here today... So stay cool and keep smiling cause soon it will be fall...

Good morning peeps... Hope everyone had a lovely weekend, My sister her friend Judy and my Great niece left early Sunday morning. We all had a nice visit, Did a little shopping, cooking, and some good talks, Anyway I promised you all my chicken salad recipe so here it is.......






One roasted chicken form the grocery store chopped up
two stocks of celery
two or three green onions 
1/2 cup of dried cranberries
1/2 cup of chopped pecans
1 cup of mayonnaise 
1 tablespoon of poppy seeds
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
 Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
And I use Croissants 




Now, You can alter this by adding as much of the ingredients that you want... When I cook I really don't pay any attention to measurements...unless I am baking, But this is all the stuff I put in it. So hope you all try it and let me know what you think. And Judy I know that you are waiting for this recipe... So ENJOY and glad you came down to see me....
