RE: Popcorn !

in #communitylast year

Popcorn! Who doesn't love some slightly salted, buttery popcorn? Hold the butter on mine. I used to love popping it on the stove, and I still do it, even though we have a popcorn machine. There is just something nostalgic about popping over the gas flame and having those kernels do their magic. Hmmmmm!

I never heard that about microwave popcorn. That is more than scary. I agree, does it really matter how much he gets if he is dying? It is all good for his relatives, but, for him? It kind of stinks.

I hope you are doing well, I am running late as usual. Twice in one day, you posted? Oh, Lord. You don't post for three weeks and then boom! Twice in one day? LOL

Sort:  

I normally only let it be real buttery when I got it at the movies, but I can't even remember the last time I actually went out to one.

I remember through the years which pot at home we used. There was one good pot that the handle had broken off, but the pot was still substantial and I remember Dad using it many times and using pot holders in each hand to shake it around while popping. THOSE were the days. Of course we had an air popper for a while, that none of us liked the corn out of..... and Dad had one called a Stir Crazy popper and back in the day I thought it made movie quality corn, but I have had one as an adult and it wasn't the same.... Phooey ! I don't know what they did to it to keep it from being like the original. Dummies ! ha ha

Money just can't compensate for everything. I might make you able to make your last days more comfortable I suppose, but that is hardly a decent pay off for dying early.

I am doing well thanks. Yeah, two different days of posting, but both within 24 hours. The NERVE of me !

I thought it was great after the pregnant pause. 🤣 I am glad I saw them. I am so behind on my comments and notifications!

When it comes to money, I am with you, it can make life more bearable if you were sick, but, in his case, he wouldn't have had to worry about it, to begin with. Money is everything and sometimes, it literally has no meaning.

I have found with the popcorn machine, makes it taste better if I let is set for a few minutes, otherwise, it is too dry. Sound weird? I am going to let it set for a few minutes in the pan on the stove today or tonight and see if it does the same.

Sometimes when it sets in the pot, the steam makes it tough. I'm certainly not the expert on that though.

See? I didn't know that! It is usually history in seconds!

LOL @history in seconds !

You know what? I ran out of popcorn!!! I forgot I used a lot of it at Christmas to string the cranberries and popcorn garland and make popcorn balls.

I am running to the grocery store before they close. Gone are all the stores staying open all night or at least midnight.

Le sigh.

What ??? LOL... oh no !

What a revolting discovery !
