Found another use for my leaf plates. Olives, you either like them or you don't. I love olives, Gary does not. Do you like olives? If so, what's your favorite type of olive? These happen to be queen olives, but I like all types of olives, black, green, stuffed, so many to choose from.
Whether you like olives or not, olive's are an important crop not only for table olives but for olive oil. And it can't be denied the olive's role throughout history. You can read more about the
history of the olive here. Whenever I think of an olive branch I think of offering a symbol for peace. In today's political climate more than a few olive branches are needed. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
Nice contrast between plate and olives. I’m with you on olives! I’ll eat them in almost any form. Runny, when I was very small I would only eat green olives! đ€
ReplyDeleteHi Suzi, thanks, funny how we are when we are young. stuffed with garlic or blue cheese are good too, even an almond.
ReplyDeleteI love olives, and have done since I was a child. My partner came to them in his fifties. Late fifties.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, thanks, I have tried to get Gary to like olives but it just doesn't work. I have a mediterranean pasta salad with olives that is so delicious and the olives really make the salad - here is a link to the recipe - https://bluestarrgallery.blogspot.com/2009/06/lindas-pasta-salad.html

DeleteI don't care for olives, but DH likes them. So whenever I find them in or on my food, I simply move them to his plate. But I do love olive oil!
