Reload!

Time to drag out the rice and wheat berries again.

I have jars in my kitchen to hold handy helpings of our favorite foods.
(Beans, rice, wheat berries, and other things.)

Every once in a while they need to be refilled, and I haul the bags up from the basement,
or take the jars down, depending on how many need to be filled.

But, for the wheat berries, I have my strong 15 year old, bring the 50 lb. bags up from the basement and reload my glass gallon jars.

Sometimes I have a little helper that likes to scoop and dump the grain in for me.
I am SO thankful for willing and helpful hands to lighten the load.
I love my kids!

I like the wall on your shelf, so simple looking! We keep our flour in a big 5 gallon bucket. It serves as a seat if need be. We just pop a bar stool cusion on it.

Aren't jars so much fun? They are artsy, yet very useful at the same time! :D

Faith's hair is getting so long - it looks lovely!

Missing you bunches and bunches! I am looking forward to seeing you again and having a big hug to make up for all the ones we've missed! :)

With Lots of Love,

I too love the shelf and jars. I am looking for big jars to keep our various dry goods in,I just switched most of the smaller things to small glass jars. Nice to see at a glance what is needed.
Blessings!

Good idea to keep pretty gallon jars in the kitchen and everything else in the basement. Your decor is enchanting.
