I had no idea what to do with them, but I can't resist the lure of a marked down Ball products so I bought it anyway.<br />They are great for storing spiced nuts, wild violet sugar and other dry items. They are terrific in the freezer with stock (though if you open your freezer door and the jars go leaping out because the wire holding items to the door falls down . . . then they have a tendency to chip. But only in that instance. And the best use? Opening a jar of jam, then using a single piece lid to close it every time until the jar is empty. Love that.<br />Thanks!Kirstenhttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-23153662851128204972015-05-09T12:06:12.334-07:002015-05-09T12:06:12.334-07:00Meghan,

I still can't believe we pulled up in this town on a Sunday afternoon, hit some open houses, met with the Realtor Monday and Tuesday morning and put an offer on one of the 12 we'd seen on Wednesday. <br />And now, 4 years later, for Mother's Day I'm painting the half bath and helping my spouse install a new sink and toilet. If we have it all done by Sunday night, I'll consider it a successful weekend.<br />Good luck!Kirstenhttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-49401265954088502372015-05-09T11:56:20.487-07:002015-05-09T11:56:20.487-07:00Arman,

I don't usually go for smoothies in the dead of winter (I switch to oatmeal then) but the rest of the year I can go for a smoothie. When we're all hungry and dinner's not yet ready, a pitcher of smoothies can tide us over.<br />I would absolutely recommend a Vitamix. I have used mine year round, in 4 kitchens over the last 14 or so years. It runs great. They cost more initially, but you don't need to buy a new one in 4-5 years so to me that's a better deal.<br />Best of luck with your research and shopping! If you hit up Costco, watching the person demo how to make a smoothie + reading the cookbook was more than enough to get me started.<br />Thanks!Kirstenhttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-71414673409020523912015-05-09T11:51:18.320-07:002015-05-09T11:51:18.320-07:00Kristina,
