But nope and I am surprised to see how few people have noticed the Paul Newman jars! I almost always by Paul Newman brand. 100% of the proceeds go to charity and Paul Newman was the most handsome man ever. Ok, the hands. It's bombolina sauce. Think, grandmother or aunt who is always pinching your cheeks. Those are her hands.graceelenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019205786952575350.post-22432429482385038252011-01-10T19:53:12.968-05:002011-01-10T19:53:12.968-05:00Wow!
