I just started sprouting in a mason jar this week. I am excited about it. All I had to do was buy the seeds and a screen to replace the lid on my mason jar. It costs me all of $4 for a bag of seeds AND the screen. My sprouts are growing already. I read I can make sprouted wheat bread also from wheat berry sprouts. I am going to try that next. I love the sprout idea too!!!
I just bought 2 cases of quart jars.... thank you for the heads up or the useful idears...

Thanks for the link to all the great ideas. I am new and am enjoying all the conversations. I have a zillion (ok, maybe an exaggeration) mason jars. My husband thinks I am the mason jar resue home. Especially when we moved and he counted over 40 boxes of jars. :)
Love the cake in a jar, I have done soup in a jar, cookies in a jar, but never cake! Sweet! You know that would be a great baby shower gift. It's like box mix from scratch! Even a bridal shower gift, too cool!

I love my Mason/Ball jars too. I use the ones with a bale to hang as candle lights outside. Put some sand in the bottom and wedge a votive container in it. Make sure you don't let the wax get in the jar. It is almost impossible to get out of those narrow necks! ( It can be done but believe me you don't want to.) Connie
