If it sparkles - I'm there!

Is this tea olive?
Very fragrant

Thx!

Don't squat with yer spurs on!

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved

I call it Sweet Olive, but yes that's what it is.
