Today while taking some things out of the fridge, I came across this jar taking up room. It's rather large, and what is in it? ONE PICKLE!! Who leaves just one slice of pickle? Why not just take it and throw the jar away? Sometimes I wonder what goes through the heads of the people I live with (I love them, though!).
Right as I was about to throw the jar away I changed my mind! When I was rinsing it out I remembered a day a little over half a year ago that I was texting someone while at the grocery store. I was going to visit him soon and out of all the things he asked me to bring him from America, he wanted pickles. Well, you can't take pickles on a plane so needless to say, he didn't get the pickles, but the thought still makes me laugh sometimes. Here's where the saving the jar part comes in: I have decided that I want to go on another adventure, like last year, by the end of 2012. I saved up the majority of all the money I ever made from June 2010 to June 2011 for my last, and one of the most effective ways for my saving was having a money jar. Therefore, I'm bringing about new savings in the form of this pickle jar! I'm going to decorate it after it goes through the was and make it beautiful to add more inspiration. I will post another picture of that later.
Isn't it great how random things can bring about great thoughts? I love it, and I am now very pleased with what started out as a second long annoyance. Can't wait to start filling up this pickle jar and get moving towards my next trip!
P.s. Caroline just told me it was her, and it was one pickle too many for her tuna.
