When I was little, I saw a commercial for Smuckers and it was a revelation to me that people buy jelly. She passed away on Christmas day 17 years ago, but everywhere I’ve lived, I’ve had a jar of Grandma’s jelly sitting on the shelf in my pantry (unopened) with her handwriting on the label. I just can’t throw it out.
I kept an unopened can of peaches from my grandmother’s fridge in my own for a long time. Through a few house moves. It was not homemade, an actual metal can from the grocery store. I have other things with her writing and many of her kitchen utensils. She passed 20+ years ago.
