“Rolling Up the Rim”
A picture of our precious little angel, Nixon Drodge, from Shoal Harbour, NL. Nixon is eight months old and he was anxiously waiting to meet his Uncle Andrew for the first time at the airport in St. John's. While the family gathered around waiting, my sister decided to have a coffee from Tim Horton's. Nixon loves bright colours, reds, yellows, etc., and when he saw the empty cup, he reached down, put it right to his mouth, and with his first two teeth he tried to roll up the rim. My brother-in-law was right beside with his camera and snapped the picture. We took the mug away soon after, just in case he might bite a piece of the cup out.
When we rolled up the rim after, it was a free cup, so rolling up the rim will keep going on with us for another while, I guess until the contest is over, but we'll continue with the coffee, of course.
But like Nixon, "One medium coffee with cream, please. I love rolling up the rim."
