6 days….6 kids….Day 5….Late night
Who knew popcorn could do so much damage to a saucepan?!
I bought popcorn kernels from ASDA and the instructions said to add 100g of corn to a pan then cook over medium heat, shaking until it had popped.
It said nothing about oil, which I thought was strange as every time we’ve popped our own corn, we’ve used oil.
The smoke that came from that pan made me choke! I tried to clean it, with little success and I’m a bit narked if I’m honest. It’s one of my biggest pans and we use it a lot when we have people round for dinner (ooh get me, sounding all posh…..I’m not! We sometimes have visits from my brother and family and we need a big pan to cook enough mash for everyone!!)
Anyway, the kids watched Mr Bean tonight and didn’t get to bed till gone 10 pm. It was lovely hearing their huge belly laughs; Mr Bean always brings out the laughs in my kids 🙂
I’m looking forward to the party tomorrow then we’re going to be child-free for two weeks. Brad, Mason and Lily are going home tomorrow afternoon and our kids are going to Aiden’s dad’s house for 2 weeks.
It’s going to be oh so quiet!
