LOL, Therese! My mom still uses her air popper that is bright orange circa 1978. Still melts butter in a sauce pan on the stove too.

I’m trying to convince my kids that popcorn balls are better than snickers bars, they are not convinced.

I think in a head-to-head Popcorn Addict Challenge, I might win, Lauren. My parents used to keep a paper grocery bag filled with popcorn in our cupboards at all time. We were all addicts. Or maybe my folks were just trying to sustain us all as cheaply as possible. Hmm. Must ponder. ;)

I’m such a popcorn addict that I wish I could bottle up the smell of microwave popcorn popping. (Because I am odd)

And yeah, it is trying to tell people what to think and what’s worse is they’re trying to divert people from the issues to stupid stuff I couldn’t care less about.

Thanks for the recommendation, Lori! I’ve heard great buzz about it.

I so agree, Lauren. The negative ads totally turn me off. Tell me how you can make my life better, not why your opponent is a scumbag. Sheesh!

Date night is good. Enjoy it. Hubby and I played hooky together today and went to the movies. I predict an Oscar for Clint Eastwood and Steven Spielberg for Flags of Our Fathers. Great book, great movie.

Popcorn, yum - my favorite.

I’ll be glad when election day is over, too. All the phone calls, all the begging for money and votes, all the mail. Urg. Why do we need others to tell us how to think anyway?

You hit the nail on the head with that one alright. I can’t wait myself. For election day. It’s unfortunate b/c instead of talking about the issues all they do is sling mud and people fall for it.
