December 22, 2009

As Christmas Day approaches ( and quickly at that! ) I wanted to share something for people who love to entertain or just simply love Olives! This is how I stumbled upon this most delectable olive....... My husband had so lovingly gone to get groceries at the store ( normally this is something I do ) and picked up some very different things that I would not have normally picked up. It's not a bad thing, only I noticed a lot of spicy type stuff that I can really make the kids for snacks or meals. Sigh. However, I like the refreshing change when he goes, because sometimes I get in a shopping rut. Anyways, among his purchases were these olives that I have never seen or tasted before. And oh my goodness! one taste of the Lemon Twist stuffed olive and wanted to eat the whole jar! I have never tasted an Olive like this before.

Now that I was hooked, I decided to venture on to their website http://www.olivelovers.ca/ to see what they have to offer.... And talk about selection, you need to check out the yummy olives they have! They have Jalapeno and Blue Cheese, Almond stuffed and even one called Temptation. Another cool thing is that they are a Canadian based company out of Mississauga, Ontario. Whatever your entertaining need this Christmas be sure to seek these out and keep them in mind for your New Years bash. They also have a number of recipies posted as well! At only 25 calories for 4 large California olives it sure beats the 400 calories for a mere 1/2 cup of mixed nuts!
