is there a name for this kind of love?
Jun 24, 2009 Have I confessed before my random love of transporting miscellaneous liquids in squat, little leftover glass jars? I am sure there is a clinical term for this obsession of mine. Here are some recent adventures-in-transportation:
The dressing for our camping coleslaw, and butter for morning grits:
Pomegranate-Molasses-Bitters-Lemon. In other words, a base for a whiskey cocktail enjoyed on a friend’s porch. Based on this recipe. Delish. The jar in the back is a creme fraiche kind of thing to be shaken later and poured over summer pudding, on that same porch.
Yes, good things happen on that porch.
PS: You guys are awesome in your love for my Dad and his hockey playing. Thanks for all the great, flattering notes. They really mean a lot. And yes, my Dad is pretty kickass.
And secondly, the ink I used on the muslin bag is a fabric ink stamp pad. I think I got it at Paper Source. I think you could certainly chance it and use a regular ink pad. At least, that's how I would roll if I didn't have the fabric ink pad...but I just happened to have it from another project.

I too have been loving glass jars lately - great for holding dressings and leftover sauces and...well, I can see you already have the idea!
I do that too! There is nothing so romantic as pulling out a picnic dinner (or delivering a meal to a friend) and having little jars of goodies to mix together. I'm always on the lookout for great jars. It's especially fun when you find a good vintage one. I found one (probably from the 80's) the other day with a black lid that said "Cheez Whiz" in yellow writing. Love it!
tee hee! i share your love of glass containers. have a good time camping!
Ooh you have hit the nail on the head as usual!! I too love putting things in little jars and taking them places. My picnics are renowned for the numbers of things I can get into old jam jars. We are going camping in a few weeks time, and I can just imagine the van rattling round corners.
There is something fun and childlike about the whole business, like when you are a kid and you love packing a little suitcase?
love the glass jars, they just feel so much nicer than tupperware:)
I really differ with a lot of people in this article, given that I noticed this blog article I couldn't stop before I finished, even though it was not merely what I'm hunting for, was nevertheless a great look over however. I will quickly consider your blog feed to keep in touch of future updates.
