UNIMPRESSED.
well ladies & gents, I think we have finally hit a recipe low. it was... oily, dare I say? I don't even know how to improve upon it, since so many things seem to go wrong with it. maybe if it wasn't marinated and you just mixed everything together on the spot it would taste better. at least the consistency would be better and the olives would seem less slimy.
I'm pretty irritated since this recipe has tons of my favorite things to eat: olives, feta, lemon, garlic & bread.
I have no more words. the only thing that can cure this is an episode of Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood and ice cream. (and maybe watching Julie & Julia again for some inspiration.)
here's hoping to a better recipe tomorrow,
