That's right, I'm blogging about olives... my life is just that exciting right now.
Tom and I went to the "nice" grocery store down today and the guy who was guarding the "free" samples all but literally twisted my arm into buying some olives. I bought some sort of large variety (about the size of small plastic Easter egg) that were coated in fresh herbs and garlic and stuffed with almonds. They're delicious. As a "gift" he also allowed me to eat one of the shrimp and gave me a smaller container with about twelve regular sized olives that are spiced (with chili's) and stuffed with the most scrumptious chili gelatin I've ever had.
What I'm saying is that I payed nearly five dollars American for olives. For beautiful, ripe, firm green olives and I actually feel that it was worth it. For those of you who don't remember, this is quit a change for me, the girl who used to eat canned black olives after wearing them on the tips of her fingers... of course I was five, it was thanksgiving, and you all weren't watching the "kids table" very carefully...
