These are inspired by Patricia Wells' "Chanteduc Rainbow Olive Collection" in her wonderful book "The Provence Cookbook." It is best to use olives that have not been pitted.

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
5 bay leaves
2 large garlic cloves, peeled, green shoots removed, thinly sliced
Strips of rind from 1 lemon (preferably organic)

1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 cups imported olives (black, green or a mix) (about 3/4 pound)

Steps:
