Shrimp and Olive Pasta image

From the Chicago Tribune's Good Eating section. "Celebrate St. Joseph's Day and honor the saint with this shrimp pasta dish. The briny tang of pimiento-stuffed green olives pairs well with shellfish, especially the rich, sweet flavor of shrimp." Try green olives stuffed with chili or anchovy for a new zing!

I'm not a big fan of olives, but I really enjoyed this pasta. The shrimp and feta cheese were delicious.
