 This tapenade is delicious and comes together really quickly. It features fresh basil (from my garden, bitch)

We had it with fresh rosemary bread from sunterra and rice crisps, but it could be totally raw if you served it with raw vegetable crudites or raw crackers.

GROSS/INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY: Olives, Pumpkin Seeds, and Garlic are all 'objectionable' to certain intestinal parasites. Most parasites are most vulnerable at the time of the full moon, because that is when they lay their eggs. 90% of people have intestinal parasites. 

SO! Not only is this tapenade delicious, if you eat it around the time of the full moon it kills worms. 

Take that intestinal parasites.
