Samantha asked if anyone knows how to pickle olives, so I thought I'd 
throw in my .02 worth. Apparently you make a slit in each olive with a 
sharp knife and then put them in salty water. You need to change the water 
regularly for about a month. I can't remember if you're supposed to change 
it every day, every other day, or each week. Anyone know? I think the 
brine needs to be quite strong. When the olives are done, you can keep 
them in olive oil instead of brine.
