my popcorn maker

One of the things that I have rediscovered, and Cartoonist love, is making popcorn by hand, or rather by pot. Her friends are all amazed at how easy it is to do, and have watched with open mouths as I put oil and kernels into a pot and shake it. They are all so used to popping it in the microwave that they have never seen it pop. Having a glass cover adds to the fun.

I put olive oil at the bottom of the pot, and then add a quarter cup of popping corn, which I buy in bulk at the local natural food store. It doesn’t take longer than five minutes, and you just have to be there while it is cooking.

I would show you the finished product, but I ate it up after it was done.
