TJs doesn't have pop corn kernels anyway, Jesse. Save yourself the trouble of going there today.

We have a St Patty's party to go to this afternoon. I'm hoping the kids have fun too, it's mostly a grown up party and Franny and Isaac will probably be two of the youngest ones there.

Oh, and I finally got a photo of the new hair. Will post it soon.

I think at least a couple people here know guys they could buy one of these T-shirts for as gag gifts: [link]

Ah ha! Thanks for the info. Now I have to guess what other grocery store might have them. Crazy!

orville redenbacher comes in a plastic jar now. Maybe you just didn't recognize it as popcorn.

I am familiar with the jar, yes.

My grocery store still had popcorn kernels as of a few months ago. Stephen likes to make it old-school every once in a while.

Matt, that T-shirt is fabulous.

I am shocked by this epidemic of not-popcorn-having. Especially since (as my dark lord and master Alton taught me) you can make it in a microwave. For like 2.7 cents a serving, as much or as little fat as you want, and any kind of flavors you want to add -- it beats the usual microwave packets with a stick.

amych, I do that, too! In fact, my class did it as a fundraiser.

we still make popcorn with the stovetop turn-the-handle thing... I'm checking alton brown now though. Old Bay microwave popcorn for everyone!

also? I am in one of those moods. I wish I wasn't. Things are getting cleaned, though.

I am hangry and I have a headache. I just ate a huge dinner and am still hungry! And I am not sure if the headache is related or sinusey, but it feels like someone is hammering a spike into my sinus.

Also, I am making a corset right now. I thought the desginer patterned it and cut it, and just left it for me to sew, so I left it to the last minutes, put alas, she did not. Grrr.
