Bonne Maman Mini Pots for Celebrating Advent by Ruth Paget

Costco is selling 12 mini pots of Bonne Maman jam for $15.99 at its Sand City, California store near Monterey.

Two boxes would give two people enough jam for toast in the morning for the 24 days before Christmas.

The mini pots are individually wrapped to look like gifts.

They can be placed on a mantle or window sill and opened daily.

They are a thoughtful way to begin an Advent day.
