PICKLE JAR

What do you do with empty dill pickle jars? I mean the big heavy ones. Do you throw them away? Do you save them for a special treat, like fall festival candy? Maybe you fill them with jelly beans for a Vacation Bible game. How do you get rid of the strong smell without introducing an even stronger smell?



Some people remind me of old pickle jars. They are empty of laughter...empty of ideas...empty of energy. And these people give off a smell that soon affects the quart of dills, the pint of gherkins--even the relish gets annoyed.



I would rather be a 12 ounce of zesty relish than a large, empty dill pickle jar dreading the inevitable day when I become a victim of a BB gun.
