Tom, the sales manager at work, saw me crocheting and boomed, “What are you knitting?”
“It’s crocheting.”
“You sound just like my mother. ‘It’s crocheting, not knitting!!’”
“Well, there is a difference!”
“I know! After my father died my mom got with this guy who was a real hick. She would crochet hats and he would use the logo from the Meister Brau beer can, cut it out, punch holes in it and make her crochet it into the hat.”
“You’re kidding.”
“No…and then he’d try to sell them at the flea market!”
“Oh my god.”
“When he went down to Alabama to visit family he brought 23 cases of premium Meister Brau beer that he traded for several gallons of moonshine.”
“…um. Wow.”
“Yeah, and you thought your life was bad!”
