Hello Everyone,
I finally decided to get rid of the snow on my blog...ha. If you noticed the new picture in my profile, that is my niece bent over in a Texas field of bluebonnets. The other is my niece and nephew at a restaurant in San Antonio, I think it was at the riverwalk. My nephew's balloon reads 'call 911 I've been kidnapped' and my niece's reads ' I (heart) boys'.
Well Hubby had to fly to Memphis for the day, for business, on Friday. He made it there and back okay. My daughter 'J' and I went to the movie Friday to see 'Madea goes to jail'. We tried to get daughter 'C' to go, but we couldn't, she wasn't interested...ha. We went to the movie theater back before Christmas, just to get some popcorn. I bought a large bucket that you can refill until Dec. of this year and it only costs 50 cents per refill. So I bought two large sodas and got the bucket refilled. Then when the movie was over I dumped the little bit of popcorn that was left into the open trash can they had and had it filled up again and we have eaten on that last night and today. I put a cover on it when I got home so it wouldn't get stale. The sad thing is we have a popcorn popper like this:

But this isn't as easy to clean as a bucket...
I hope everyone has a great weekend. The girls are out of school until Thursday. They get Monday for President's day (a week later than everyone else) and Tuesday and Wednesday for Mardi Gras. They got a whole week when we first moved here.
Take care,
Sheila
I missed snow, but this is much brighter. Two smells get me, cinnamon buns and popcorn. YOu really got a popcorn popper like that? Bet that smells good.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a deal on popcorn, at a movie!
That pop corn popper is quite nice. Looks like something they give away on Price Is Right. Don't think we will have many blue bonnets here in south Texas this year because of no rain. Disappointing.
ReplyDeleteI love popcorn I like the easy
ReplyDeleteway to make it. Buy the poping
kind you put in a microwave.
Your popcorn popper is neat. I
think that would be wonderful to
own one like that.
I love snow and we never have any.
Hope you have a good week.

We haven't been to the movies in years but I always loved their popcorn. I don't think you can get .50 refills here though, it would be well worth it. I like your popcorn popper but I bet it would be really hard to clean. You can have all the snow I don't want anymore, it snowed here yesterday. Hope you have a great week.

I love your popcorn popper, they are great. Sheila, I accidently hit block on you on my favorites. I need you back. come on over any time. I told you age was catching up with mwe. Lucy
ReplyDeleteIn answer to your question about the pancakes (crepes). We ate them with butter and syrup. The trick is to hook your fork into and edge and then start rolling then put the butter and syrup on top. My youngest daughter has continued the tradition but I haven't made then in years. Hope you day was nice.
