Olives that come from an “olive bar” in a good market are da kind for me. I like the buttery, oily kalamatas or the tiny little nicoise.
And, EJsGirl, your choice of pizza toppings match mine exactly.
To refer back to the OP, I’m always amused by people who, because it’s loud at their end, think they need to shout into the phone. Hey, it’s not loud at my end. I can hear you just fine without you shouting.
And I like my pizza with pepperoni, sausage, beef, mushrooms, onions, and black olives. Also known as the Godfather’s Combo.
