I've only dug a sample size Kemp 's balsamic before. Have you ever dug one of the samples?
No, but I do love the sample or trial sized bottles. Maybe one day. Last dig I did this past wednesday only yielded catsup and food jars (bummer) Packer jars to be more precise Hazel Atlas. I am going to use them as glasses. They cleaned up nicely. Some on the surface turned straw colored from the selenium. The other subsurface jars are crystal clear. Lots of bubbles. I think they will be great for iced tea.

Gotta put my favorite in. Hooker (blue) for the throat and lungs. Camomile pills would be the second. Really crude little bottle with lots of character.

Really cool ones. I like them both. Chamomile is the way we spell it now. I wonder was it a sleep aid or possibility for calming nerves?

I wondered about that too. So I googled it.
