Well, of course we do swear although I don't know about excessively but something that we do well in Australia is multicultural food. And this cake could really belong to any ethnicity really although the first I think about is Greek with luscious figs and honey on top of a moist yogurt cake. I did apologise on twitter a week or so ago because every single fig that I had bought to cook with was eaten by yours truly (with the occasional one going to Mr NQN ;)). This year's figs have been particularly luscious and I only really buy the them if I can pick the figs individually because a dry, light fig is such a different sensation from a luscious, sweet fig that tastes like syrupy jelly inside. I've even been known to eat eight in one sitting, stopping only because I had run out. And that was the cause of some light swearing ;)
