| | Do you like olives on your sub? | | Do you like olives on your subs? If so, which kinds? I like either black or green olives on my subs and sandwiches, depending on the type I get.
If I make a sandwich with lots of veggies like lettuce, tomato, onion, spinach, etc -- I LOVE to add lots of black (or green) olives on it! How about you? | |

| You Won't Believe What Happened To Me Last Night!! Don't You Laugh!! | | I'm still having the hibbie jibbies!! YUCK!! Hubby had gone to bed and I was watching tv and took a sip of my coffee after just eating a sandwich with just about everything imaginable on it. Well I felt something in my mouth and when I spit it out on my finger I thought it was a black olive and put it in the ashtray and THAT'S when I realized what the hell it was!![em]doh[/em] It was a damned fly!! I gagged and sputtered and ran to the bathroom to wash my mouth out and nearly puked!! Hubby got up to see what was the matter and here I was bent over the sink washing my mouth out with soap and on the third time I told him what happened and he's laughing at me! I so wanted to throw a shoe at him!![em]angry[/em] Then I rinsed my mouth out with Listerine and gosh, my gag reflexes were working over time!! BLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NASTY!!!!!!!!!!
Finally I go back to the living room just spitting and a sputtering and hubby's laughing at me the whole time and making fun of me so I told him that revenge is sweet!!!!!! He just laughed and went back to bed!! DAMN B@STARD!! NOT FUNNY!! So I took my hearing aids out and turned the volume up on the tv so he couldn't sleep!!... | |
| | I now it's not Christmas but........ | | I just finished cooking a massive Turkey with roast potatos.....it was originally $27 but was reduced to $12 as it only had 2 days to go, we don't usually eat turkey except for Christmas time but they seem to mark turkey down all the time and it's certainly good value at that price...will last us two meals easily. Great stuffing too, and I rubbed it in garlic and basted it constantly so it's very tender, chilewoman loves it when I'm on holidays, she doesn't cook:P had an english spinach, tomato, black olive and green capsicum salad to go with it drizzled with olive oil and salt!:) | |

| Ever had Tapenade? | | Its a mixture of olives, either green or black, Tomatoes,red peppers garlic and lemon juice. The olives are finely chopped and its a dip of sorts. It is really tasty (IMO)Which would you prefer the green or black olive? Who wouldn't try it at all? | |

| Favorite type of olive? | | I like all types of olives I have tried thus far, but if I had to pick a favorite, I think it would have to be the black olive. They are delicate yet have a commanding flavor. Seeing those photos in this topic makes me want to go eat a big pile of them!!
What is your favorite type of olive?

| | Do you like olives? | | Do you like olives? Are you a green olive or black olive person if you like them? What are your favorite recipes with olives?I like olives somewhat, they are good on salads and pizza but I haven't used them for much else. My hubby bought a giant jar of green olives, so looking for something to do with them!!p.s.- he wants me to ask you guys since we can't find it anywhere online: how do they get the seeds out of an olive? And what are the red things inside green olives?
(Not sure where he's leading to with this one, lol!) | |

| When did black olives become gold? | | Why does a place named Olive Garden give you only one black olive per person in their giant bowl of salad?? Did I miss the Great Black Olive Blight? Are black olives so expensive that Olive Garden is risking financial disaster by serving more than one or two to its customers? And if they are, then where the hell are they getting their black olives from? Because I'd be happy to volunteer to pick up several cans for them at a dollar per can or less. There's roughly 20 black olives in a can. You'd think for a dollar spent, they'd be able to spare maybe 5 or 6 in their salad. I ate there the other day, and remembered to ask for extra olives. Proud of myself for remembering (I usually forget about their olive cheapness because I rarely eat there), I figured I'd get at least 5 or 6. How many "extra" olives did they bring me? One. One puny olive. What the hell is it with them and olives? They don't deserve to be called Olive Garden. They should be called One Olive Garden. Or Garden of One Olive. Or Too Damn Stingy To Serve More Than One Olive. Another thing that pissed me off on my last visit (which probably is going to be my LAST visit): We're having... | |
