Popcorn!

I just bought a fancy popcorn machine! Jared needed a gift idea for Mother's Day so I took care of that. Lately I have found it to be okay and just as exciting to buy my own present for occasions. I still want my husband to put in an effort like cooking dinner and coordinating the kids. And he still surprises me sometimes with windchimes or an ipod, but I know he has been extremely busy this past month thinking and doing business things. So I cut him a break and got my own present. I know I don't need a present but what fun would that be?

The Today Show had these popcorn makers on Jill's Steals and Deals of the Day that were 1950s retro that could fit on my counter. I already have two popcorn makers but one is in a box in the shed and the other is just way noisy. Hopefully this air popper will not be as noisy. But it will look so cute sitting on my kitchen counter. I'm thinking of moving the fish tank to the entry way and putting the popcorn maker on the counter by the cabinets. That way I can stress less over the fish tank leaving a water stain on the counter top.

So in a week, I'll have my popcorn maker...just in time for summer family movie nights!
