In our town we have a wonderful little Olive Mill that sells local olives, olive oils and whatnot. I have become a huge fan of the olive. I picked up a book before Christmas titled "The Olive Farm" by Carol Drinkwater.

It is the true story of one woman's adventures in the south of France where she and her love buy a dilapidated old home and former olive farm. I really enjoyed this book. It was a relaxing gentle read that had me fantasizing about living in France.
With that said, I loved it.

As for movies - last night I watched what was probably the most torturous movie I have seen in years. It was called "The Limits of Control". Sheesh. Do not waste your time. Most of the movie was watching a guy walk around Spain drinking coffee and meeting stupid characters. Bill Murray had a small part and I totally felt like writing him a letter after seeing it. WTF Bill?
Anyways - Hated it! Don't waste your time unless you like being totally frustrated.

Welcome back! I hope your recovery continues to go well.
As for me? I love olives and anything olive related! Sounds like a fun book.
Thanks Jason. My newest olive love... lime flavored olive oil from the Quuen Creek Olive Mill. Heavenly stirred into some Jasmine rice.
