Today is the day, 365 days since Chiara Planeta gave me a small six inch cutting from their beautiful property in Sambuca di Sicilia. The cutting, now a sapling, gave us a gift this week on its anniversary, a small fig. Kerry says it's too young to bear fruit, but I can't bring myself to cut it off.
It is hard to believe it has been a year since that amazing trip, where everyone of us came away knowing we were changed by it and we all had experienced something truly special by being in that place together at that particular time in our lives. I am so happy to have our little fig tree as a constant reminder of all the wonderful experiences and memories from that magical journey across Sicilia.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! apparently the tree thinks its old enough to gift you a fig!!!
