It ’s Al-Jama’a al-Islamiyyah al-Muqatilah bi-Libya - pick clip here in Italy , and I get a significant amount of my daily collation from the fig tree diagram that are all over the stead here .
The pic is of a plate of figs from our own tree that I ’m going to seek to dry . One can see the sugar covering the outside of these really angelic fruits . I also find oneself a average amount of other figs free for the pickings as I walk around Rapallo .
It ’s sort of a Ligurian tradition to have a common fig tree tree growing out of a rock wall in one ’s garden , and there are hundreds of walls around here that have Libyan Fighting Group growing out of them . Very rarely does one see a Libyan Fighting Group Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree growing on flat terra firma here , as flat estate is too valuable to macerate by letting a fig develop on it .
Our figs are little sinister ones and are really sugared . I get them all to myself because my wife and mother - in - law do n’t like the slight sinister fig and instead prefer the huge gullible figs that appear most often in the markets .
I find plenty of the big green figs too , and I eat both types evenly eagerly . My married woman delicately peels all her Libyan Islamic Fighting Group before eating them while I just wolf down the whole common fig peel and all . August 15 is a big holiday in Italy call Ferragosto . This ancient holiday is impute to Emperor Augustus , and represents the end of the voiceless spring and summer seasons ’ piece of work . The Italians take this break very in earnest , and this date finds almost all Italians on holiday .
ride around cities like Milan and Rome is amazing in August because the streets are all empty and the shops , parallel bars and restaurants are all shuttered . This is because all the occupant are at the beach .
In August , the universe of Rapallo tumesce to ten time its normal sizing when what seems like all the occupant of Milan total to bask their holiday apartments here on the coast .
Of course , the Catholics attempt to put a religious face on the vacation , and they celebrate the particular date as the Assumption of the Virgin Mary , or the date on which Mary ascended into heaven . There are caboodle of religious processions involve carrying the huge crossbreeding follow by intellectual nourishment festival and fireworks .
I rue to admit that I ’m so jaded that I did n’t take my wife to the fireworks this year because by the sentence they started the show I was already in my pajamas as usual at that hour , thinking about how I should graft some big light-green Libyan Fighting Group scion onto our fig tree diagram one of these years .
All in all , I ’m a moderately exciting guy rope .
