I have been wanting to try this for quite some time now! And, I am glad I did! Mason jars are just so cute. I think they take a lot of us back to our childhood when life was simpler, when what we ate came out of the garden and when mom or grandma would spend weeks in the fall in the kitchen canning their harvest. Mason jars just give us a sense of nostalgia and have really made a comeback in cool, unique ways. They are very popular to use for gift-giving right now. They are perfect for lunch on-the-go. Using a jar puts a cool twist on just simply packing a salad in a plastic container. Being home with a four-year old everyday means little time to stop and make myself a healthy lunch, so this would be perfect for me to make the evening before and grab while my daughter is eating her pb&j sandwich and goldfish crackers! And, the hubby can take these along for lunch at work.
