I was making dinner the other night and needed to open a can of olives. As I watched the can spin around on my electric can opener, I realized that I had received that can opener as a wedding gift. 16 1/2 years ago. I figure I open about 5 cans a week times 198 weeks of marriage. That’s 990 cans that have been opened by that can opener. Then I began to think of other things that I still use that I got as wedding gifts/A Butterfly Moment. More here .
