Can you guess what I had for breakfast?
I’ve been stocking up on empty nut butter jars for this move because they make the perfect vehicle for breakfast while all my plates/bowls are packed away!
Ladies and gentlemen (are there gentlemen? oh well, I’m going with it because it sounds right) – I give you the Tale of Three Jars:
Once upon a time there were 3 jars.
While completely individual in nature, these three jars were absolutely inseparable.
They did everything together! Being near each other was like breathing to them – it just had to be done.
Until one day one of the jars started to stand out a bit more from the rest…
Bragging about how no two sides of his were alike and how UNIQUE and SPECIAL that was.
The other two tried to keep up, but every time they tried to prove that same point, they failed…
They began to grow annoyed with the 3rd jar’s showboating and bragging and slowly started pulled away, leaving this guy on his own…
At first he acted like he didn’t care, like he was HAPPY about it..
But he wasn’t.
He missed his friends!
He ran back to them, apologized and told them he’d never act so foolish again. The others gladly accepted his apology, thrilled simply to be reunited with their best friend.
They all lived happily ever after together in my stomach after being consumed 
I know what you’re thinking right now…I should write children’s books. HAHA.
See what happens when you stay up late?!
Happy Thursday everyone!

What a cute little tale you author, you!
….Jars are sooooo helpful, packing or not! Have a good day!
Agreed! And thank you!
As an English teacher, I can always appreciate a little “creative writing”!
Hahah YES! Love it
I love your Thursday story! So cute!
Best of luck with packing and your move. Packing is the worst. I’d much rather unpack.
Thank you! And I agree – I hate the whole process in general really but unpacking is DEFINITELY more fun
Aww, poor water and coffee jars. They just can’t stand up to the glorious O.I.A. Jar. But we still love them!
Hahaha I know!!
I found this way too entertaining. And I could feel the sadness in the photos of the water and coffee!
Hahahaha – I love that! And I’m glad you were entertained, you’re definitely my kind of people
LOL late night packing always makes me wacky. Good luck with the move!
Haha – clearly me too!! Thank you!
Love your 3 jars!!! I think food and drink taste better out of a jar! Hahaha!
I COMPLETELY agree!!
Lovely story and breakie
Haha thank you (even if it’s just “she’s so crazy” type of love
)
Love the little story! Happy Thursday!
Haha thank you! So glad you enjoyed it – and happy Thursday to you as well!
I love eating and drinking out of jars
There’s just something about it… 
Totally! Why does it make everything that much better?!
You have so many nut jars! Jealous! Great Thursday morning story
Haha I have WAY too many! I think that was officially the last of them though! At least until I re-stock
I just discovered your blog and I LOVE it!! I will be reading daily!
Oh I’m so glad! That makes me so happy to hear – and welcome!
Yes you should write a childrens book!!
Just bought that TJ’s PB yesterday too =)
Haha! And yay! It’s so good
You are too cute Cait, and so talented
I am going to TJs today, guess what kind of peanut butter I will be picking up? 
Haha thanks
And yay!! I also recommend their Sunflower Seed Butter!
lol….made me smile, Cait!
Haha yay!! That was the goal
This makes me want to walk in the kitchen and just start eating peanut butter out of the jar so that I can then stuff it with oats.
Then I’ll buy your children’s book about breakfast adventures and read it to Baby A.
I think you should do that! It goes along perfectly with our discussion yesterday!! And yay!! I can totally make a living off of writing children’s books to sell only to you!! (though truth be told I’d give them to you for free so that might create a problem, haha)
I’ll pay you for them in pizza.
DEAL!
Such a cute story! And beautiful pictures – as always! Can’t wait unitl my almond butter jar is almost empty!
It’s the best and worst feeling in the world when they’re empty isn’t it?!
This is a great post! LOL!
Haha thank you!
