This One's For You K

So recently, my sister mentioned that she had a blog. "Send me the link!" I cry, and she complies. I start looking, and casually mention that -I- have a blog as well. And offer the link as fast as I can before she can request to not have it. That's how nice of a sister I am.

As she's flicking through my blog quickly (unlike my ever-thoughtful perusal of her own... :-P), she mentions "You like putting things in jars". That is entirely true, and I accede the point.

Flash forward a day, and I had open bags of beans on my ever-cluttered (and tiny) kitchen counter from delicious, bean soup. Thinking that I have to do something about them, I scrounge around for four jars. I find four jars, and stick the beans in them. Noticing a lonely PB jar hanging out begging for me to put tapioca in it, I kindly fill a small jar of black tapioca pearls as well.

This is the state of my newly jarred items up until today:



Beautiful, isn't it? I just love glass jars filled with yummy things. You can always see food! And it's all different colors, and highly prettiful. No, I do not have a problem, and yes, I am currently seeing a therapist, why do you ask?

Well, en route home from said therapist today, I stopped in at Trader Joe's for nibblies. As I was poking around the tasty foods in the store, I came to the dried food section. I love dried food -- it usually goes in jars. Well, as I had also been eating oatmeal a lot, and I'm out of dried rose hips, I needed something else to make my oatmeal exciting and tasty.

So! Enter the new contenders for the title of Newly Jarred Items:



We have almonds, cranberries, and banana chips. Om nom nom. And a fun note:



Rotti Largo ex-pasta sauce, now almonds! :-D
