Long Time No See
April 15, 2011Those of you reading this post in America will understand what I mean by “long time no see” with regard to this simple soda can pull tab. These were considered a litter problem and outlawed a long time ago, decades in fact. American soda cans have to have openings designed to not detach.
After marveling at this blast from the past for a while, I pulled it off.
High quality workmanship. Nice.
Here’s another thing I haven’t seen in a while – “Made in USA”
We ate last night at a new restaurant in our neighborhood, Rara Avis. I recognized the plate as being Corelleware immediately because they are distinctive. I was surprised to find it at this small, inexpensive restaurant. This type of restaurant usually serves on cheap plastic (Melmac style) plates.
