Mason Jars – Feeding the Flock 23

pics 021

Golden Harvest, Ball, Knox, Kerr and Ideal
All come with a cover when boiled should seal

Nostalgic green and blue come with a hinge
Plain or etched letters; decorated fringe

Contemplating lifestyles near and afar
My mind slumbers on the old Mason jar

So many treasures this antique will hold
Pickles and relish, some sweet and some bold

Blueberry-fig preserves and marmalade
Homemade strawberry jam like Nana made

Dried beans, neatly lined on the window sill
Spare pocket change, patience it will soon fill

Great is the Mason jar in every size
Open it up to discover the prize.

Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life..  1 Timothy 6:18-19

Mason jars are right in line with April A-Z theme of resilience. Are you a dooms day prepper?  Do you have a long-term storage pantry?  Have you ever thought about cooking off the grid?

Be blessed,

Check out today’s magnificent meal.
