you know, you can actually make popcorn in a really big pot on the stove. or in fact in the microwave. i googled it once and found literally dozens (possible hundreds) of methods / recipes, including more than one requiring only a paper sack and a microwave.

(you're welcome. )
Thank you, but we always have a bunch of Microwave Popcorn packs at home. But once in a while I would like to be able to make whole "buckets" of popcorn and just sit in my bathtub and pour butter all over myself whil..... errr.... did I just type that?

We had an air popper from the '70s. I brought it with me when I married Tim. Finally got rid of it a year or so ago, for the simple reason that you can hardly find bags of loose popcorn anymore. Whole grocery aisles devoted to the microwave stuff, so there's no need to portion it out anymore, I suppose.

But a big hot bowl of air popped corn, dowsed in melted butter (not margarine), and lots of extra salt used to be so tasty!

(I haven't had a single kernel since falling down a flight of stairs and breaking my face in Spain in May '07. My newly rebuilt teeth, gums, jaws, nose, and eye socket can't handle the hard parts of popcorn. The craving is torture!)

Ah, but the kernels that is the last thing left on the bottom of the bowl when you've eaten all the popcorn is the best of them all! So I sympathise deeply with your cravings

OK, back on topic. sigh


I also want what just popped into the adsense bar up top! It is an ad for something to de-jelly my belly. Santa needs that also, since his belly shakes when he laughs like a bowlful of jelly.

I'm wishing for more Vera stories for Christmas - all multi-episode adventures. Let's see. One with some nice squid would be nice. Another in orbit would be good. One down deep. Another steamy one in the kitchen would be good. And there should be pastry. Lots of pastry. And the occasional capuccino. And maybe The Blue One, Next To The Fish in a cameo appearance.

Looking around a bit, I have a few ideas:

BookishDreamer: a box of crayons (her avatar is looking a bit pale, at the moment).
bgDeb: a new towel (a little smaller?)
pshwynk: a real model seaplane (no, not a BMW)
DixieGal: a full banana split
Slite: a great big, wet, slobbery doggie kiss
Queen Zee: ditto
RSE: a second floor

What say ye?
