These grape leaves were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll drain the olives better next time.

I'm not a huge fan of gorgonzola, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was surprised to find that I really enjoyed the combination of flavors.

The grape leaves were a bit tough, even after cooking them for the full amount of time. I'll try blanching them for a few minutes before stuffing them next time.

These grape leaves were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less gorgonzola next time.
