Discussion of November update

Loved the pie recipe. Triggered my way back machine about an olive tree.
It was getting wild so I trimmed it. A lot. Next thing I know I have an amazing amount of olives. I turned to the best gardener I know and asked mom how to go about preparing them as a food item.
She said, grab a large bushel. When it is full, drag it to the curbside for pickup. Then go to the store and spend a buck for a jar of olives.

So, no home made olives for me…

As an aside - DO NOT toss large armfuls of olive tree trimmings into a burn pile. The flare went up at least 20 feet and took most of my eyebrows before I could properly leap onto my back (feet ignored the MOVE notice and stayed planted).

Happy November, everyone…
