It’s moments like these..

When you have a desperate craving for microwave popcorn and none in the house since you accidentally cooked the last packet a *tiny* bit too long yesterday causing smoke and possibly even fire that you begin to realise the benefits of being the opposite of Mother Hubbard.

Yes, Lightening. Me too. :) Until this time last week I had two packets of microwave popcorn squirrelled away in my cupboard. In fact there is so much shiznit in my cupboards currently yet I can’t find an eatable snack because all I want is what I don’t have!  I have plenty of potato chips but I do not want them. They’re not hot, buttery, freshly popped popcorn..

    LOL. I always want what I can’t have too. I have about 2kg of popping corn though – not the microwavable kind per se but popping all the same (I have a popcorn maker). ;)

    (a) I pop normal popping corn (nearly spelt it pooping) in the microwave. I have a vegetable cooker with small vents in the lid that I use – no oil needed – and cook until the popping seems to have slowed.

    (b) why can’t you cook the microwave popcorn in a pan? Just remember the lid!!!

    Does your microwave not have a popcorn button to press for perfect popcorn everytime? I thought they all had them.

    This is a funny post. I too have been craving some popcorn or other snacks recently. But, since my wife started her diet all we have is baby carrots and hummus and other healthy nonsense.
