I was looking at a beautiful fig tree with my mum yesterday. And now annoyed with myself for not taking a leaf or two!
Go back and grab some!

Oh my! Sounds gorgeous
I have an image now Sophia - of you liberating fig leafs in your neighbourhood!
The image is spot-on! I have 2 go-to trees here in Brussels and have been known to stash fig leaves in my suitcase from trips to Italy!
