I’m glad you joined me on Wordless Wednesday and I hope to see you soon.
This was one of my Grandparent’s canning jars and it’s the perfect size for flowers. I have all of their canning jars even though we have done very little canning. There’s something special about them, they hold memories of my canning green beans with my Gramps and of course, eating out of the jars year round. They also canned lots of tomatoes, okra with tomatoes and jelly. There is no comparison to the taste of food out of a canning jar, a can food will never measure up.

I should have known you’d appreciate canning jars. I have one of my grandmother’s canning jars I use for a vase, too. I actually is a pickle jar. It is precious to me. I love canning.

They make me think of growing up and watchong them can and later as a teen when I loved with them I got into canning as well. It’s hard not to when you have a garden and don’t like eating food from a can. I’ve canned a few things, hatch peppers, green beans and jelly but it’s been a long time.
