Olive Paste!


Olive Paste!, originally uploaded by The Saff-ster.

To make olive oil, they grind up the olives into a paste, pits and all. Then the paste is squirted out onto these mats woven from a rope-like material.

I love olives, but I just starting noticing this in the past couple years. I used to think of them as tasteless salt rings, the parsley of pizza. But now, I am amazed at their variety of sizes, tastes and colors.

Without a scale reference, this could be a lubricated still life with green apple, eggplant and mango.

These are ancient european archways that were brought to America a hundred years or so ago. Somehow they came into the possession of the Shandon Chapel and then lead up a steep path to the Chapel with olive trees on either side.
