Holiday


It's a holiday for many. I am pleased to share a little breakthrough

I have just had with the problem of opening Pop bottles.


Because, yes, when the weather turns warms, I bring home large bottles of Pop

to drink over ice on hot days. And pretty darn often, there is a batlle to initially open

the said bottle... Well, not anymore.


So there I was battling a 2liter Diet Tonic, having just borrowed the large elastic from the

frozen peas bag in the freezer compartment. No matter how i forced things, nothing was

moving. Just before taking the deadliest knife in the kitchen out of its sheet to knock out the cap, 

I tried one last time the nice way. And just squeezed the cap as well as turning it. Psitttt! like 

a charm. The bottle was open without much force at all.


A lifetime of bottle caps, and now I just know how!!
