Kristi was so excited she found an air popcorn popper this year. She looked everywhere last year and couldn't find one, she even asked everyone she knew if they had an old fashion popper. She wanted to make caramel corn and needed to pop regular popcorn. So while we were in Target, a popcorn popper just jumped out at her. She gets this air popper out, puts in the popcorn, and it pops out real fast. She said, "wow, this is great." She put in another cupful and went to turn it on and it was dead. She looked at the instructions and it said it had to rest for 10 minutes after each popping. Kristi said,"OH man". Kristi, decided to try to pour the uncooked popcorn in without turning it off. She was having a good time, then as she was pouring the last cup in, she hit the lid and popcorn went everywhere, all over the floor in both rooms, and all over the counters. Kadee was trying to pick it up, but believe me there were a million pieces of kernels on the floor. We laughed about it and how Kristi didn't beat the popper after all.
The Moral to this story: Be careful trying to outsmart a simple machine, and no, we didn't pop the kernels on the floor, they are still in my vacuum. By the way, the caramel corn was delicious.
