Wow! I had no idea there were so many different types of these little beauties! Nutritional profile is excellent! Their high mono saturated fat content has been associated with a reduced risk is heart disease. So easy to add to salads, serve to complement platters and just eat by themselves🤗

26 Types of Olives: A Guide to the Healthy High-Fat Fruit
Olives are a high-fat fruit and they are full of beneficial compounds.
With a deep mythological history, they were---so the story goes---a gift to humankind from the Greek goddess Athena.
Now, there are hundreds of varieties growing throughout the world, and they all have a unique appearance, taste, and texture.
However, if you're like most people, you probably only know two types of olives; "green" and "black."
Let's change that.

Slow down mummy, there is no need to rush,
slow down mummy, what is all the fuss?
Slow down mummy, make yourself a cup tea.
Slow down mummy, come and spend some time with me.

Slow down mummy, let's put our boots on and go out for a walk,
let's kick at piles of leaves, and smile and laugh and talk.
Slow down mummy, you look ever so tired,
come sit and snuggle under the duvet and rest with me a while.

Slow down mummy, those dirty dishes can wait,
slow down mummy, let's have some fun, let's bake a cake!
Slow down mummy I know you work a lot,
but sometimes mummy, its nice when you just stop.

Sit with us a minute,
& listen to our day,
spend a cherished moment,
because our childhood is not here to stay! x

Is this you? Having a very job can cause all sorts of to emerge. A typical scenario is that you may not even think about food all day because you are so busy and stressed in your work day. Get home, relax, your hunger signals kick in and often is the result. Try planning what you intend to do for breakfast and lunch and pack it the night before. If you have those 2 meals with you, make the effort to eat breakfast before you start. Only takes 5 minutes! At least that’s a start. Then lunch is with you and hopefully you’ll be more likely to eat it. First rule of thumb to stop bingeing, is to eat regular meals, as well as snacks if you need them.

How often do you eat lunch at your desk or skip the meal altogether? If you are anything like a lawyer, the answer might be all the time.
