SEALING MASON JARS WITH FOODSAVER FOR LONG TERM STORAGE

My brother's pantry - and my jars of Harmony House dehydrated celery and onion - have been attacked by pantry moths! I had switched the 2 piece metal lids on my jars with plastic ones years ago, so now I'm busy finding and putting them back on the jars. Maybe I'll finally get myself one of these FoodSaver Vacuum Seal units and use that to keep the critters out, too.

All Hail the Potato!

The social worker at my husband's dialysis center is transferring to another unit, and this week she's giving each patron an info package to hang on to, a thank you card, and some little gifts. This was in a little mesh bag along with a few lollipops. My husband laughed and said he would have preferred a real potato to the candy! 
 
It's nice to know that some other people realize the mighty power of the potato!
