Christmas Cokes are back!


I started collecting these cute little coke filled ornaments last year I believe so I was happy to see them today at Walmart. I don't drink soda anymore but I sure love these for decorating. Coke is such a classic in it's self and has been a fan of Christmas specials for as long as I can remember. I do collect some coke stuff, like tins, I have a big one on top of the fridge that I use for storage.

Today, I'm thankful for music, I'm a big fan and I listen to the radio all day long, weather I'm riding in the truck or at home cleaning, gotta have the radio on. Funny how a song can take you back in time, to childhood or a first date. I can't live without it, and today I have the oldies station on, going back to the 70's when I was in school and boy crazy....no longer in school but still boy crazy, for mine! lol My dear friend Laura of Harvest Lane already posted her gratitude moment on music before me, but I am thankful for it, nothing like a good song to stir up some emotions, soothe a happy heart or celebrate the holidays.........oh the Christmas music, I can't wait!

So happy to see so many coffee lovers out there and newbies too. Funny how a giveaway or a good recipe gets the numbers! Good luck to all, and remember you have till the 25th to enter. I see I'm in good company here!

  1. I love Coke products. I don't like to drink it but I love the nestalgia(sp?) of it. My brother-in-law works for Coke. I guess that makes me kind of partial. You know those same bottles were selling on ebay for a lot more then you could buy them in Wal-Mart, just an idea, tehe.

  2. Hi Friend Sue,
    You have blessed me with your kind words! Thank you.

    Music does truly play into our memories. Air Supply always reminds me of my long distance relationship with My Lowell while I was in college.

    Silent Night or Away in the Manger remind me of my momma rocking me in her arms as a wee girl. I knew them as lullabies rather than Christmas carols.

    God bless you My Friend Sue!

  3. I gave up drinking soda for about a year. Then we went somewhere and all they had was coke! I gave in and had one and now I am a coke-a-holic once again! Maybe one of these dyas I will give them up again!
    I have never seen thsoe balls before! I don't think we have had them in our area, so I will be on teh look-out for them. One of the local Piggly Wiggly stores makes a big production out of the "Santa Coke Truck" arriving. They even air commericals about it! LOL!
    Have a great day!
