The Pits...

    The salted olives turned out delicious! So good in fact we went on with step #2 and "pickled" a few cases. Some plain and others with various spices..coriander, garlic, and jalapenos. We have been invited to a huge olive picking party where we will get to make our own olive oil so while cruising around this weekend we scouted lots of trees for the picking. Life is good...no....make that great!

Sounds like you've got Christmas gifts all taken care of!

I am totally striking out finding any trees that have the green olives on them. They all appear to have over ripe black olives on the. The search continues.....they look GREAT!

oops! ,wrong kinda pit 

ok....i found the right pics!...sorry.

I'd like to thank my Pa' for setting us up with EVERYTHING we needed to make these things eatable. I was skeptic at first, but after a few months of sitting in the jars, i can't stop poppin' em!!

We have given them to those who eat them. The feedback was "very tasty!!"

I ate about half of Moochs jar at Mendo, saving mine for later...

Agreed: Very Tasty!!!
