glass straws

for quiet a while i have been looking at my glass straws and lids with holes... it has been something i have wished for, for a while, as we all love to drink smoothies and all kinds of other beverages out of mason jars, there is just something unique about it...
this is so wonderful, finally i got it all together, the right size jars and lids, as well as the glas straws!
it was a bit of a puzzle, as i ordered "wide mouth" lids and then found out, that this particular size jars is not available in switzerland....
so this past month my daughter was visiting the US and she was able to bring home two wide mouthed mason jars, thank you A for helping her to get the right jars...

and now as summer is not over yet, we are all in smoothy mode.

i ordered the glass straws and modified lids at man mini's, and yes i do like them, they also have very special straws in the shop and the wide straws are just wonderful for thicker smooties...
the regular ones i love for iced coffee!
