Roasted Fig, Prosciutto, Ricotta French Bread Pizza

Figs.  Dude.  They’re totally my downfall.

Y’all, I really don’t know what in tarnation comes over me at the Teeter when I see the figs.  I turn into some kind of a crazy person and have to scoop up every box in the cooler – and there are usually only about 4 or 5 boxes.  I just have this compulsion to hoard them all to myself.  NO FIGS FOR ANYONE ELSE!

I then realize the extent of my craziness, the error of my ways, and attempt to hide boxes of figs all over the place.  They’re in the produce drawer of the fridge, hidden behind the OJ on the top shelf, and my worst offense – the crisper drawers in the garage beer fridge.  I have not stooped so low (yet) to store them in the kegerator, but give me time, friends.  Give me time.

I always get busted.  Chris will start looking for something to pack for lunch or decide he needs a beer and piles of figs start falling like rain.  Or like skeletons from my closet.

Then he’s all, “WTF are you going to do with all these figs, chick?”  Or “Lucy, you have some ‘splainin’ to do!”  Either way I’ve got to do some quick thinking.

Yeah, that’s it.  Because I always have a plan.
