The Last Time On Popcorn

19 August, 2008 (15:37) | Household Tips and Recipes, Just Plain Stupid | No comments


Because it’s probably true that I talk about popcorn way too much but hey I love it and won’t make apologies.  Yesterday’s catastrophe with popcorn was that the microwave was on the fritz and no slamming it with the side of your hand was going to fix it in this case.  Believe it that I [...]
