Louisiana: Coozie Count

 

Louisiana coozies

After a year in Louisiana, my coozie count topped out at 20.

I received them at festivals, parades, and hey - Brooke and Ron! Happy 2013 nuptials! - I even plucked one off the street.

Sizes vary to accommodate cans, bottles, cups, glasses, and some coffee mugs, if the handle is high enough from the base.

My coozies proclaim information about:

• Bands
• Bayou Teche clean-up
• People running for political office
• Businesses
• and Brooke and Ron's marriage

Louisiana: The Coozie Collection

Coozies, Louisiana

When I moved to Lafayette, I kinda knew I'd collect some beads. Had no idea about the coozies.

I don't think I've ever owned a coozie in my life (not these style, anyway), but I've only been in Lousiana for four months, and I already have TWELVE.

In New Mexico, I kept a tally of tarantulas and sonic booms. Looks like in Louisiana I'll be counting coozies. I'll keep track on the right side bar.


Brooke & Ron - If you're out there and you want your coozie back, give me a holler.  I found it in St. Martinville.
