So I just made the most who-woulda-thunk-it discovery. Stumbling around the internet, I came across this blog with a tip on mason jars. It turns out that the opening on an average mason jar is sized and threaded just right to fit on your blender. Simply unscrew the bottom of the blender’s normal pitcher, and screw it right on top of your mason jar. Flip it over onto your blender base, and voila! This would make a terrific food processor, or a single-serving smoothie. In fact, you could call this a DIY Magic Bullet blender, on the cheap.

According to the article, this isn’t just coincidence, but dates back to a time when blenders were sold with a mason jar “attachment” included. A local bar around us gives out logo mason jars as mugs, and we’ve got about a dozen of them piled up in our cabinets. Now I’ve found a new use for them!
