Beirut Olives
The preparation for these lemon-zingy olives originated in Lebanon, where lemons infuse practically every dish. You can make them up to a week ahead of time. The recipe calls for green or black olives, but if you can find them, add torpedo-shaped, purple, or other olives imported from the Mediterranean.

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the
page layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect
with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images.
Maybe you could space it out better?
