Popping Corn

For Christmas Kellie gave us movie tickets, babysitting and popcorn.  It was real popcorn.  As in kernels that you have to pop in some way.  It didn't come in a bag that goes in the microwave.  My children were all stumped.  "What do we do with it?"  "Maybe we could glue it on paper plates and make a creation."  Yes, there were other brilliant ideas, but I'm not sharing them all.  Instead, I got out a pot and added oil and popcorn and then shook it on the stove. "Wow!  I never knew you could do that."  I guess they don't know about life without DVD players and cell phones either, but those don't bother me.  Somehow there's something much more wrong in not knowing about popcorn.  At least I've righted one wrong in the world.
