friday nights

so my Friday nights should probably be spent going on dates or something... but they aren't. Let's be real. They are spent with my new best girls. My Sewing Team, the printmakees. We (Amy, Me and the Jimison's) all stay in at the Jimison's house. Two weeks ago we made cinnamon popcorn, and Isabelle, age 9, ran around with my camera taking the most wild pictures. It was fun to look through them afterwards. But we had the best time. We just sat around and talked, and cut fabric... ate cinnamon popcorn. The Works. The only thing that would make it better was if my Mom was there too.

the recipe is as follows:

Pop enough popcorn to have about 10 cups.
one 7.5 once box of red hots
half a stick of butter
two tablespoons corn syrup

melt the butter, red hots, and corn syrup in a pan on the stove.
once it's melted poor it over the popcorn in a large bowl, and mix mix mix (remember Mrs. Fields baking show on food network?)

couldn't be easier
couldn't be better

and I usually let it cool on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper... or I quickly form it into balls while it is still sticky. So the primary song is true...

This past Friday we made Indian food. WOW. It was awesome. Both Carla and Amy are really good at making it. I contributed by being a good little samosos triangle philo folder. Delicious. After which we watched an old British series called Red Dwarf followed by the unexpected Spanish Inquisition, Monty Python and the Flying Circus style.

happy October!
