Ben and I are driving home and he says, “Mom, we need to eat something out of a can tonight for dinner so that we can try out your new can opener.”
“Good idea, Ben. But there is salt in canned goods. I’m going to have to think about what to fix.”
“Mom, corn doesn’t have salt in it. That sounds good to eat!”
So Ben and I came home and pulled out the new can opener. Some one anonymously gifted me with a Tupperware can opener this weekend. I have no idea who did, but I am so excited about it. My current can opener (which is in the trash) is horrible. I argue more with it and the children know to leave the room if I have to pull it out. The lids never come off nicely. Usually I’m pulling out some tool to pry the lid to the can open after I have cut it with the can opener. This tool is so cool. And it worked so nicely!! We ate a lot of corn that night because I had to open several cans for the shear joy of it! The best part of the evening was while I read the instructions, Ben managed to open the first can shouting, “It’s a miracle!”
So to whomever sent me the lovely can opener . . . thank you!
