My mom arrived at my sister’s a few days before we did. On my nightly call with her, our mom got really excited to show me something she got for each of us. Slipping it on to show me mine, I bust out into the most tickled laughter!

Then my mom put her beer in it and I lost it even more! They laughed at my laughter and my youngest grew worried. There’s a Bills one for my sister and the funky colored one for my mom. She said she took the one nobody wanted. A mother’s sad story. My sister said she actually planned it that way so she could have the one she really wanted.

The laugh continued when we arrived and my mom used hers that evening. Nothing particularly hilarious about a can cozy, but for me, it was a break from my otherwise serious pursuits. We had a good long row of jokes and fun all over some practically crafted yarn.
