Even a jar has its story.

in CCC4 years ago

What do you see?

A jar that is half empty or one that's half-filled? It doesn't matter as long as what it contains tastes good and it does.

I found this jar.
I have all kind of jars. A part I bought, some I found left on the ceiling of our new home, I reused jars I bought with peanut butter, applesauce, vegetables and chocolate and found a box with jars at the glass container.
I found this one and like the way it looks and am happy with it even I no longer set the table.
It's filled with mulberry jam. We have two trees and plenty of berries, good berries if we pick them in time. The picking is a nasty job. My hands turn red and it remains that way for weeks. If the children pick they wash their hands and it's gone.

The decoration is only on two sides.
I guess the rest is meant for a label with what it contains.
I use the lid for that. I can not reuse it anyway. I need a tool to open pots and bottles.

It's old, partly rusty and it looks as if something or someone bit on it. I cannot remember who did that but it looks like little teeth bites. Perhaps a dog?

Home made marmalade. I never thought this would be eaten. My children are not fond of marmalade. I guess taste changes through the years or perhaps they can no longer be picky if it comes to the food of their choice. I made it in June 2018.

Thank you for sharing this in your post. I won't ask how many do you have but it's like that you have a lot.

You have 5 years old tomatoes and still looks good. I forgot to ask this one. Is it a cherry tomatoes?

And now you have a 1 year and 8 months marmalade.
This is very interesting.

The tomatoes are common ones but I had to pick them as they were small and still green. The became red off the plant after that I put them in the huge jar.
I guess I have over 100 jars. Some contained eggs. You can save boiled eggs too. 😁
