Mmmm, figs!
And erin, I did wonder if you could stand, but then I thought "but standing and doing her job for HOURS would be exhausting".
I had one employee for a long time that always worked standing up at a high table we had. He had previous back surgery and said he was much more comfortable that way. He would sit and socialize at lunch, then go back to work standing. Although I hope that this doesn't become necessary, Erin!!!
Sorry, Epic. That's the only fig recipe I know.
Bacon or prosciutto wrapped is good even without the cheese. Goat cheese doesn't bother my lactose intolerance, but your intolerance may be different.
I've had this and it was deelish. [link] I think you can leave out the parmesan.

No worries. I still marked it 'cuz it sounds yummy. And I think sj's right about goat cheese being a little easier on me than cow. I just thought I'd solicit for further ideas.

Marked!

Same here. But, if you like tahini, it's a good dipping sauce for figs. I think.
Naked. Figs on their own are plenty delish.
The one trick with fresh figs is to eat them quickly, they don't last. I just rinse them and then nom them straight up, no adornment.
I already stand at work work quite a bit, but currently it's a problem because whenever I stand, I also fidget. Like, to the point of dancing. And dancing is a huge no-no right now and makes it hurt even more, so I find myself sitting more than usual which is sad for many reasons. Surgeon was highly skeptical of working even while standing for more than four hours at at time and even that only after several months. Perhaps if I could get mgmt to sign off on one of those treadmill desks (I know at least one member of the health and safety committee has been lobbying for one for *years*. We have sooooo many health issues from the combo of shift work + high stress + sedentary that lotsa folks want the treadmill desk option, but risk mgmt is a big ole ixnay. I wonder if maybe I could push for a medical accomodation to get one in the door...very slow walking might be just the thing. And if I can type while walking on a mini stair-climber, I can totally type while walking on a super slow treadmill.
That sounds like an excellent idea, e_o. If you could get the medical exception it might help others as well.
