I must share with you all the harrowing experience I had this past weekend. I attended a dinner to celebrate my niece's birthday at a family style italian restaurant. The food was great. It was served family style. We had these ball things, I know that sounds bad but I can't remember what they were. They were breaded with herby cheese stuffing and had a marinara sauce that they were served with. YUM!! Then we had an italian chopped salad. This is where things went bad, BAD, BAD. Just prior to the salad being served the Big One sitting on the end explained that the olives had pits in them but they were very good. So, the salad comes, remember it's family style, and I spy an olive. So I serve up my salad and snag the olive. Woo Hoo. I got it. Then a distraction from my child at the other end of the mass of family. She wants a picture taken down the length of the table. Great. But, I was going to eat my olive. I'll take the picture then get to the olive. So, I get up and end up needing to take pics. for 2 different people. I get the job done. Sit down eat my salad and forget about the olive. Dinner comes, I get lemon chicken with a side of Alfredo. It looks yummy. So, I go to hand off my salad plate to server man and guess what. MY OLIVE, WHERE'S MY OLIVE. No, No, No. I didn't eat it and the pit did I. I think about it. Honestly, I was kinda tired and I was hungry. No, I didn't eat it. Think. Think. No, I Didn't Eat It. OK people at my table. WHERE'S MY OLIVE. There's denial all around. But, the denial comes quick. So, we ask again. WHERE'S MY OLIVE. Then, little sister thinks she's funny and tries to pass off some smashed looking poo thing from the floor as my beautiful green italian olive. FAT CHANCE SISTER. OK, last time.WHERE'S MY OLIVE. Big Sister nearly busts a gut and explodes with it. I ATE YOUR OLIVE. That is just soooo wrong. They ate my olive. Is there no justice in this world. So, dinner on Saturday was great and the restaurant was alot of fun. But, Damn, SHE ATE MY OLIVE. That is just not right. Cathy I know where you live and I am coming for my olive!!!!!!
