Today's treat was...popcorn for lunch...with real butter! It's funny how many kids have never experienced making popcorn other than sticking a bag in the microwave. They enjoyed watching it explode out of the air popper and really wolfed it down while telling me how good it was...even better than what you get at the theaters.
Maybe next Christmas I will pop it in a pot on top of the stove just like we used to in the "olden" days! They should get a real kick out of that.

Put the oil in the pot
and you let it get hot
Put the popcorn in
and you start to grin.
Sizzle...sizzle...sizzle
...sizzle...sizzle...sizzle
POP!

What a terrific idea. I bet the kids love it.
ReplyDeleteI can still remember the smell of real popcorn and the excitement of hearing that first "pop" when I was a kid. Thanks for the great memory.
Merry Christmas, jj
