10 bucks

How many canning jars do you think you could get for 10 dollars? I stopped counting at 287. My in-laws got them at an auction in town. They called me and said they had some canning jars for me to pick up. I didn't know that I would be shoving boxes into every inch of my car! For a little while my kitchen was consumed by jars. We washed them all and had them drying on the counters:

and the kitchen table:

Now I just have to fill them (ok, maybe not all of them). I'm glad they are mostly quarts and pints because I can't seem to stop making jam so the last thing I need is more jam-sized jars. You gotta love a good deal.
