From A Hamburger Today

Los Angeles Area Burger Roundup

We used to say that if you wanted to enjoy a serious case of indigestion, go to Tommy's. A must before or after any home Dodger game. But beware the after effects. When I visit now from the Northeast anywhere in California now it seems, I hit In n' Out. I have always found their ingredients fresh, the hamburgers cooked to a slightly crispy outer layer and tender inside, second the vote on the toasted buns, and real vegetables unlike other places cited in this review. The shakes are excellent and the fries so-so. I think the fries have a good, honest beginning in the potato but not a good finish in the frying.

In Gear: Hacking Mason Jars

I grew up on a farm where Mason jars were reserved just for canning and used everywhere, particularly the wood shop. If you attach the lid to a surface, you can unscrew the jars and fill them with nails, tacks, screws and so on. My friend used one as the cover for his light bulb in his very beautiful sandstone tiled shower. It looks clean and clever and does not detract from the overall design. From year to year, I replace the lid linings but not the screw caps - these are good for years as long as, after you eat the jar's food contents, you wash and dry them. I can's imagine using a plastic lid - seems antithetical to the jar's purpose.
