I love olives...especially in a martini, but this is the next best thing. Made for PAC Spring 2010.

I live in Minneapolis with my husband and our dog Dexter. We just got married in Oct. of 2006 and live in an old house that we remodeled ourselves and turned into a duplex. He's a med student and is just starting his residency in family practice. I'm an adult mental health case manager. My job is super-stressful and takes up most of the brain power that I have in a day, but cooking is relaxing to me, and I love trying new combinations of foods.
