I'm the one doing it! 🥰🤣 Figs are a real powerhouse. If you read up on them, a tremendous super food. I honestly will eat them everyday and can't say that about a daily vitamin -- don't even have "daily vitamins" in the house.

Consume milk everyday, too. Need to say that about eggs but, can't. Maybe one every couple of weeks :hide and they're laid fresh each day. Many of my friends are happily eating them 😁


I'm so glad you are looking after your health ❤️. It's something I should have started a long long long time ago. I absolutely enjoy normal blood test results and BMI, let alone feeling consistently awesome. Enjoy those figs and good clean food 😋

I'll eat a few oganic sun dried figs for you :)

When you actually pick them you'll find the figs may have tiny white spots on them...part of the sap but can be offsetting to see 😳 Also, your hands get sticky, both sugar and sap, which is like latex - same properties. They sun dry but I cut each stem off. I cut them in half, also, before the dry. You'll see that sugar "frost" appear when drying. If you don't know, you think it's mold starting 🤪. Interesting adventure.

These two trays will dry faster than last weeks simply due to less volume in the dehydrator. But you still check & move them around on the tray as the large, riper ones take longer. I'll have a full unit later today, after I pick up those from my friend.

Did FB dry any of the peaches?
