No more mushy celery

So Richard's Grandma has a lot of nifty little secrets, but this one it one of my most useful.
I always buy a ton of celery and by the time I get to use it, its either soft or spoiled.

Here's the tip: When you get home with your celery, cut it into strips and place it in a mason jar with cold water in your fridge. I've had celery last up to a month and a half like that. Still crispy/crunchy and still got the flavor.
