Popcorn

Sharing a bowl during the Bengal's playoff game

I love popcorn and there is no denying it.  I don't care if it's at the ballgame, the movie theater, Target, or at home, it is by far my favorite treat.  I've been known to make special trips to Target just to get a bag of popcorn, and I have a very hard time sharing when we go to the movies.  And while I'm confessing, I'll admit that I have once gone into a movie theater only to buy a big bag of popcorn.  I brought it home and ate it at my house.  I have a problem.

Since I have such a craving all of the time, I've learned to make a pretty good bowl of  popcorn using our Whirley-Pop.  I come no where close to the buttery treat that my father in law used to make for us, but I'm working on it.  (Was it all of the oil?  Was it the butter?  I wish I would have paid more attention!)  If you check out the picture above, my guys don't seem to have any complaints.  

Jack has been fighting a cold this weekend and has been a bit cranky - a perfect reason to make a bowl of popcorn and watch an episode of Curious George.  Oh, and Jack hasn't chosen a favorite popcorn yet either.  He just likes it when we share.
