Local resident Barbara Haythorn received this gift for Christmas this year. The jar contains 365 folded slips of paper, one for each day of the year. They each express an idea that will make you think, tickle your funny bone, expand your understanding or even make you angry. The expressions are from many years of collecting thoughts and ideas that the giver finds insightful, loving, provocative or humorous. The person who gave the jar (and did all those little strips of paper) was Bonnie Roberts. (photo submitted)
