I've got some, wife wondered why do I have a few boxes of them in the shop/garage? And I keep a good dozen or so of various sizes in one of the kitchen cupboards. Always using them for temporary storage of stuff, haven't canned anything since we moved here in fall '16. Garden hasn't started producing that much extra yet.

Then my wife started making some different curds, like lemon, pomegranate, and presently there's a lovely cherry one in the fridge.

She now understands why I keep canning jars.

We get a good supply too from our honey usage, the local honey folks put theirs up in mason jars. We go through about a pint of honey a week, easy. Sometimes a whole quart if there's baking going on.


The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men.
In it is contentment
In it is death and all you seek
