Drain olives and coarsely chop. Mix with all remaining ingredients and let flavors blend for 30 minutes. This is an unusual salsa that is great served over pasta. Also good with green salad or spread on slices of French bread. Pine nuts are best roasted ingle layer in pan. Preheat 300 oven. roast 5 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
