I should have done this from the start.
But I didn’t think of it until yesterday. As I have been doing quite a bit of fermenting lately, I’ve needed to use most of my Ball mason jars, lids, and rings. The lids, and rings have been in a small black grocery bag that I had hanging in the pantry just next to the kombucha jar. They have been a jumbled mess since I put them all together in said bag.
Not anymore. I had a moment of complete clarity yesterday when I decided to divide them up. I put all of them in my dish washing tub with boiled water, and he new organic dish soap I use now, and cleaned them all really, really well. I put the clean pieces on a drying towel in the pantry on the washing machine lid to dry, then took 2 of my reusable produce bags, and divided them up into regular mouth lids/rings, and wide mouth lids/rings. Yay. That only took 40 years.
This morning, however, I saw a half dozen “miscellaneous” lids on the towel. Well, damn. Where am I going to put those? In another produce bag, duh!!
So, here’s what I ended up with, besides no orphaned lids lying around the kitchen, and pantry, looking for a home. They all have a home now. Let me know what you think.
I want to let you know that I will be taking at least the first 2 weeks of September off to get some things done around here, and to get some posts saved to post when I come back.
Until then, stay happy, and healthy in the Lord.
