I don't give a fig

Sent from my iPad

"The saying is based on the Spanish Fico (= Fig) which gave its name to a traditional gesture of contempt made by placing the thumb between the first and second fingers. The gesture was common in Shakespeare's time and was known as The Fig of Spain. The modern-day equivalent, at least in the UK, is the "V" sign."
(There is, however, a more bawdy version!)

“To eat figs off the tree in the very early morning, when they have been barely touched by the sun, is one of the exquisite pleasures of the Mediterranean.”
Elizabeth David, An Omelette and a Glass of Wine

I love figs; they are both sensuous and sexy. I'm also excited by my new painting from the very talented Frances Innes.
