"The Olive was a native to Asia Minor and spread from Iran, Syria and Palestine to the rest of the Mediterranean basin 6,000 years ago. It is among the oldest known cultivated trees in the world - being grown before the written language was invented." (source History of Olives)
Makes you wonder what they used to put on the labels of their bottles of Olives! :o)
Great food shot. Olives and a nice piece of Brie, and a glass of wine, and some nice crackers....... It has been raining for three days and I cannot stop eating.
Yes, a cup of olives has always to be in the fridge. Does not take much more than garlick, anchovies, chili and olives to make a quick and tasty pasta (and some parsley to put on top)...
Nice capture!
