Awesome snack and dinner.

I mixed a piece of the avocado mousse with homemade mayo and black natural olives (the bitter ones). And I´m eating them with crackers. the mixture of flavours couldn´t have been better. I learnt to eat these bitter olives when I got married. My husband was born in the north of Chile where there is a big valley that has to be watered with drops of water. The rest is desert. The place is called Valle de Azapa and the giant black olives are called aceitunas (olives) de Azapa. My husband told me that his parents were too poor to buy butter so they had a big glass jar full of olives. The children would pick up some bread, add a bit of bluish black water to it, squeeze in 2 or 3 olives and walk to school. Where I live, those olives are the most expensive. If I get hungry later, I´ll eat a banana. I have eaten more than my share of cake today. for the time being, I´m just munching some crackers because they are here. I´ll see what´s on the TV (no news) and then I´ll myloy a bit. See you.
