FIRE AND ICE PASTA

I apparently copied the original recipe down wrong (2 cups of olive oil?? That can't be right!) so I took extreme liberties with it when I made this. I added black olives and used white onions instead of the chives. This would be better with fresh herbs. It's spicy, so serve it with some chewy bread and a mixed green salad.
