It's a large and distinguished club.

Happy birthday and many happy returns.

OBFood: The other variety of fig tree is producing now. I made a fig
tarte using the Joy of Cooking crust recipe. (Rather I tried to use
it, but the instructions continually referred me to earlier sections
of the book in a comically Kafkaesque manner. So I basically winged
it. And I used whole wheat flour for South Beach reasons.) The
filling for the tarte was a layer of fig puree mixed with an egg yolk,
topped with sliced figs and glazed with a fig balsamic reduction.
It's cooling in the kitchen right now waiting for D and me to go to
dinner at a friend's house. I plan to slice it there and dollop some
chevre on the slices.
