Sunday Market in France - Olives Galore!

(The olive lady at the L'isle sur la sorgue Sunday market in Provence.)
I love all types of French outdoor markets and my favorite booth is always the olive one, that showcases scores and scores of olives.
This one is in the town of l'isle sur la sorgue (also the antique capitol of France)
Green olives with thyme or pickled lemons, black olives with garlic or red hot chili peppers are just a few of the many types of olives you can buy at the market here. Olives are so much part of the Mediterranean culture!, but are found all over France at local markets.
