What Was it Wednesday?

Olives

You’re looking at July 27, 2009.  Olives, obviously.  I kind of remember this.  I think that I had just read of an idea to store your olives in a jar of olive oil.  It kept the olives fresh, and when you were all done with the olives, your olive oil was much more “olivey” – the only problem was that the olive oil solidified in the fridge.  So, you had to dig your olives out.  Which wasn’t totally bad, and then at the end, I did use the olive oil like butter, just spread it on bread before toasting for bruschetta and crostini.

Sounds like a great idea, Pam, even if you didn't have anything written down about it.

Yep, my guess was olives, although I hate the things. Love olive oil though. Go figure!
