Lovin' Me Some Dr Pepper

Okay, maybe I should say lovin' my hubby's new workplace. Cause I can't stand Dr. Pepper. Shhh, don't tell his bosses! I can't choke the stuff down. Never have been. But I found out something, Dr Pepper manufactures TONS of stuff. Stuff I like!

The husband took me out into the warehouse a few weeks back. I had no idea that they owned Snapple, Deja Blue, A&W, Mott's, Welch's, and many more. They are also affiliated with Arizona brand drinks. Employees get discounted prices. Plus if there is something wrong with a product (the can wasn't pressurized right) then the employees get those for free.

While I was in the warehouse, I saw some Peach Green Tea Diet Snapple. The husband brought some home for me. They are really good!

Diet Snapple

The husband laughs at me cause whenever I drink one, I always end with "Ahhhhhh!" He also brought me a case of Deja Blue water.

And he gave me a cap!! I HEART caps. Have a bazillion of them. This is my new cap happy dance. Can I get a Woo Woo!

DP Hat

And that's not all! He also gave me a pair of Dr. P shorts. Sweet! It's like Christmas came early!
Now I wonder if I can talk Dr. P into going into the feed business. All I need is cattle/dog feed at a discounted price. Then the world would be perfect.

Is it true Dr. P is made from prunes. It always gave me the craps. I do like the diet green peach tea from snapple. Yum. The hat is looking pretty good. It sure beats a curling iron. I too am a fan of hats.

This is ironic b/c I just applied for a position with this company (that I won't get b/c it was a supervisor position but you never know) in Cinci. They also make Canada Dry (which goes great with whiskey) and Sunkist (which says 'summer' like nothing else!)

I agree- you can't be Texan and not like D.P.

You must live near Dublin or something? LoL. I am just kidding. It's just that that's the only place I know of where they make DP in Tx. Probably there's other places too; but when I was in college at TSU, in S'ville, that was the best- after a day of training in the heat- a Dublin, DP!

Love the cap!

Linda said...

Not a big fan of Dr P either, more of a Pepsi girl but love the Snapple!
Is that cap white???? Oh that's not gonna stay purty long now is it?

Maria said...

How do you not like Dr P??
Arizona products? They make Arnold Palmers, I love me so Arnold Palmers.

Good luck with the feed, haha.

Tatersmama said...

I LOVE me some Dr P!!! There's nothing that beats it, IMO... except maybe A&W!
Dr P jelly beans are the BEST, and my Old Guy is having a ball with the Dr P marinade!
Which means he barbeques, and I don't hafta cook! YAY, me!!!

But those dimples you got going on in the hat pic?
Now THOSE are gorgeous!

Train Wreck said...

Big Surprise! I do not like the Dr. either, but my hubby loves them! Speaking of similarities...I love ball caps too and I just got a new one! Mine is pink though. And whatever do you mean...backroads? he he I shouldn't have to tell you, after all we ARE alike. (Wink)

Mikey said...
