OXO Good Grips Cherry Pitter means baking cherry pies, preserving cherries and making homemade jams are no longer the pits.
The Cherry Pitter features a removable splatter shield that directs juices downward and prevents them from soiling your work area and clothes. When not in use, the splatter shield fits inside the front chamber and a lock holds the Cherry Pitter closed for convenient storage. Sturdy, die-cast zinc construction removes pits with ease, and soft, comfortable non-slip handles absorb pressure while you squeeze. The cherry holder is extra large to accommodate Bing and Rainer cherries and has a recessed cup to securely hold smaller varieties when pitting. Also try the Cherry Pitter to prepare fresh cherries for small children. The Cherry Pitter should be placed in the dishwasher in its unlocked position.

I first had this salad years ago in a Greek restaurant in New York. It struck me as slightly odd as I was ordering it but it was delicious and later walking the streets and seeing all the masses of chilled watermelons outside the delis it made perfect sense.
This is the perfect refreshing summer dish and is ready in minutes. Apart from the feta (40% fat) and the drizzle of healthy olive oil this dish has zero fat.
Take lots of cubed chilled watermelon, add red onion and pitted Kalamata olives, crumble over some feta cheese. For extra freshness I sprinkle with fresh mint and oregano and drizzle with olive oil.
You can add cucumber but I think the watermelon is a great substitute for both the tomato and cucumber.
To pit your olives use one of these amazing Oxo GoodGrips pitters.
