Hi everyone, can't wait to see you all tomorrow. Please wear something you're comfortable cooking in (I have aprons on hand to borrow, too) because a portion of the class will be make-your-own jar style!
Also, please bring:
1. a grocery bag
2. a hot pad or something to carry home a still-hot jar safely.
