if you received (and actually read) the daily candy email last week, then you probably saw some delicious picnic recipes by this lady. i was immediately smitten over mom’s cucumber salad and the boozy figs and peaches caught my eye since the fig tree has been going nuts this last week with figs galore. i am really weirded out when people refer to food as sexy (she says is at least four times), but to each their own. if you do not want to watch the video, just toss the ingredients below in a bowl and let sit for at least 30 minutes (serves 4). pour over ice cream for that extra yum. you can thank me later!

8-10 figs (quartered)

4 peaches (cut to preferred size)

honey drizzled (local is best, no clover)

rum drizzled (dark is best)
