A Peachy Keen Find

At work a couple of months ago I saw something I couldn't believe.

Someone had thrown away a perfectly good Monster Energy Drink can.

After a careful and germ-free removal of the can from the trash, I cleaned it up and removed the small dents and ended up with a new treasure.

An Ultra Peachy Keen find indeed.

I Have a New Crush

And this one is grape.

There's nothing special about Crush, it's a well-known brand.  But I didn't have this can design yet.

It just goes to show that people of any age can still have a Crush.

1919

A group of us went to my daughter's college yesterday to help her move home for the summer.  While there I was given this can:

While I've never heard of 1919 before, along the top edge it claims "America's Original Brewery Made Root Beer".

This must have been good, it has real sugar (not high fructose corn syrup) and real vanilla.  High in calories at 228, it's also high in taste so I'm told.

A new Classic American can for my collection.

Summer Here Already?

For years Coca-Cola has had a series of cans with summery catchwords on the side.  Last week I got my first one of this season:

This is a Coca-Cola Zero Sugar can.  Btw, I love the black/red/white scheme of Zero cans).

And the message is "Grillmaster".  

While that may not exactly describe me, I doubt I'll find one that says "Can Collector".
