YUCK! IMHO. I have tried to like Blue Cheese over the years, but I just don't like it. Although, I have been tempted to try Spanish olives stuffed with jalapeno peppers (from Trader Joe's) in my Bombay Sapphire Martini's instead of the colossal olives.

Sounds edible to me. I will eat blue cheese crumbles straight out of the container it comes in from Trader Joes. I like olives too. The Scotch, though, I think I'll pass on.

Sounds interesting...and rich! I love olives. Used to get big jars of garlic-stuffed olives when I went out to AZ and bring them back on the plane. This was before you could buy them in the stores. Yum...Another thing that my former MIL used to make is blue cheese whipped with butter/margarine to make a spread for crackers. It is very good.

Grant - how long is this vacation going to last? 
Isn't it dragging on a bit?

PS I wasn't a fan of olives stuffed with blue cheese until I chased one with Scotch.. that's a good combination. I'm surprised my head doesn't hurt this morning. My fishing partner and I ate the whole jar.

Jalapeno stuffed olives in my vodkatini - one of my favorite beverages.

According to my primary doctor you are living right:
Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Heart only good for so many beats, and that it... Don't waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer; it like saying you extend life of car by driving faster. Want to live longer? Take nap.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: Oh no. Wine made from fruit. Brandy distilled wine, that mean they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made of grain. Bottom up!
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have body and you have fat, your ratio one to one.. If you have two body, your ratio two to one.
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of single one, sorry. My philosophy: No pain...good!
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU NOT LISTENING! Food fried in vegetable oil. How getting more vegetable be bad?
Q : Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Oh no! When you exercise muscle, it get bigger. You should only be doing sit-up if you want bigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: You crazy?!? HEL-LO-O!! Cocoa bean! Another vegetable! It best feel-good food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming good for figure, explain whale to me.
Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is shape!
Well... I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
And remember:
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"
AND.....
For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.
1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans...
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.
