Olives.
 
I'm addicted to olives. I eat tons of them every week (well, maybe not to the point of exceeding the suggested daily sodium intake...)
 
Nothing beats sitting down with a couple of good books, some crackers or matzos and olives. Occasionally, maybe some cheese too. Old cheddar. 
 
Or so I thought. Tonight I discovered olive medley hummus. Oh my...
 
I even dipped olives in olive medley hummus!
 
I think I finally understood what it is that people feel when they eat bacon or chocolate.
 

Nice. Loves me some hummus too. Haven't had matzos for a long time. My local supermarket does an antipasti selection tray of olives, cubed cheese and sundried tomatoes, that's an occasional Saturday night treat with a nice Pinot Noir.

 
 
Add a few home-pickled shallots into that mix and I'd be in heaven
 
 

It's such a weird habit I have developed, of putting things into context. If I watch a documentary about Rome, I need grapes and olives and wine. If I'm studying Jewish scriptures, I need matzos and olives, and jewish music. If I watch the Godfather, I need pastas. WWII - Sauerkraut...

And so on...
 
But olives are always there.
 
This is why I cannot say that I've read Ozzy's biography - it would most certainly incriminate me, and peta would declare me public enemy no 1... :P

Olives, stuffed with anchovies. My favourite.

Add some bacon to that!

Hi,
 
I do use olive oil instead of anything else, but in general, olives are good, but I have not indulged in some time. Time to visit Safeway and get some!

Those are the biggest Triskets I've ever seen!

5 year old cheddar, an assortment of crackers, kalamata olives. Add good lighting and some nice music or a movie. I call it Saturday night.
 
Oh ya, the hockey game. Can't forget about the hockey game.

The 1st part isn't computing but I understand the get the bacon part
 
I have the same love of olives,cheese, and crackers. Then I get the bacon. I have it almost everyday for lunch
