Oh, hells to the yes! This post is awesome <3 Thanks for starting my day with a giggle! I hope to one day soon eat at least twice my weight in olives in Greece! Olive them!
I think it's an olive virus of some kind. Two days ago, in a place called Puyallup, someone served me a tequila drink with two huge green olives in it.
Welcome to Athens! (i've been meaning to say this ever since I read you were coming our way)
I can't blame you for the olives, they are terrific and can be devoured all on their own, though a bit of good hot bread goes a long way :D I can't wait to read about your impressions of this corner of the world (i'm not very happy with us nowadays so I would totally welcome a different perspective)
I want to thank you for now making olives a controlled substance in Greece. A person can now only get them with proof of ID. What's next? You'll need a prescription to buy pasta in Italy. And, really a Starbucks in Athens??!! That's like going to a McDonald's in downtown Tokyo!
Brilliant! Now I want some tapenade.
Incredible creative writing! But the olives--did you really devour OLIVE them?
Lmaoo
I wish substack had LMAO emoticons, but no. Here is the one on my phone: 🤣

Absolutely the best!
Funny! Feel free to enjoy my share of the world’s olives 😊

I needed that to escape from the daily gloom and doom. Thank you. And the Rick Steves quote was priceless.
Wonderful! Thanks for the laugh to start the day.
Hilarious!
Hilarious, fantastic writing! Thank you for the morning laugh! 😂🫒
This is the funniest thing I've read in ages. Nicely done!

Love this!! We did the same thing in Naples. Bought a bucket of olives and a jug of wine and never looked back.
