For all those who don't know yet I am a junker, a collector of anything that strikes my fancy. I have a favorite little junk store, here in my small town. I stop in a month or so, when ever the urge strikes me. I always find something that interests me, and the owner always shoots me a pretty good deal.
I decided, today to stop in and see what was around. As always I came out loaded down, but this time I had to laugh at myself. My big score today was a whole cashe of Jello molds. You see we are not Jello people, pudding yes, jello no. I just couldn't help myself. I just kept thinking about MaryJane and her ChillOvers. Not that we have ever had one, but like I said, I just couldn't help myself. So it seems I have started another collection. I ended up with 4 different styles of single servers, 24 little molds in all. One set called by "Jel-Rac" by La Bra, even has a little rack to hold them.

Not how long, but how well you have lived is the main thing.

Maybe if you try MaryJane's chillover powder you and your family will love jello. I understand it's a much different thing than the stuff you can get at the grocery store. I've been meaning to place an order and get some as we DO love jello but I just don't think all that food coloring and artificial flavoring can be good for us. Not to mention the other stuff that goes into it.

Dear little Baby Girl, talked me into trying them out with green apple Jello the other night. However, I am sure that they will end up used for many other things. I was thinking myself that they would make cute cupcakes, or even molds for ice cubes in a bunch bowl. But for now that are senting on the counter and just looking pretty.
