Oh, yes, the glass jars! I use small glass jars for freezing herbs as our all-too-short growing season comes to an end. I even sent a few jars with my daughter to her college apt. She and her roommate eat well for college kids!

Turning off the tap while brushing my teeth or soaping up my hands was one of the first things I had to practice doing before it became habit. :)

The little things matters :)

I was wondering if I could use glass jars in the freezer Daisy. I have lots of them and lots of berries…it seems like the perfect combination.

They really do Eco Y. I hesitate to include things like this but then I realize that I started with these small steps too.
