A Special Treat

My sister grew popcorn this year. She told me to be sure to mention that she grew it "three sisters" style (meaning, she grew the corn together with beans and squash). Here's how we enjoyed the harvest today.

1. Tuey pulled the kernels off the cobs.


2. We heated oil on the stove and added the kernels.

3. My sister oversaw the cooking until the corn was all popped.

4. Our resident 5-year-old claimed about half the popcorn for herself, ferociously guarding her plate and yelling when anyone tried to share.


6. Tuey employed his usual enthusiastic eating style.



p.s. This kid's the best. If he just had a volume control button, he'd be perfect.
