been craving saltiness lately and it's been satiated with the kalamata olives. :)
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
the little spanish arbequina olives, hands down.
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
I love olives! My favorite depends on my mood - sometimes cerignola, sometimes arbequina, sometimes picholines, sometimes nicoise, sometimes picual, sometimes manzanilla - give them all to me.
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
Oh, I love olives so very much. It's a toss-up between a buttery cerignola or the always delicious kalamatas...
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
Never met an olive I didn't love. My current favorite is picholine. It will be something else next week...
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
Yes, I'm boring, but I'll pop kalamata after kalamata in my mouth just like candy (but picholines are nice too, and Gaetas... )
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
young, fat, green cerignolas. and sadly those gross pimento stuffed ones in the grocery store

I love kalamatas with pasta and manzanillas plain or chopped in soups

feta-stuffed green olives. or black oil cured ones. I love the oil most of all- I practically drink it if it's good enough.

I love the ones that have been pressed into oil. :)
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
Picholine...or a big green one stuffed with a smoked almond. yum.

I love those little arbequinas.
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
Kalamata or black cerignola or regular green pimento-stuffed, or garlic stuffed...
Weekend Giveaway: Nudo Olive Tree Adoption
pimento stuffed "martini" olives. i used to suck the pimentos out then eat the olive--straight from the jar, when parents were drinking martinis
