Try, Try again

We decided to make our own popcorn today!  I had seen this on T.V. and thought it would be fun to make our own popcorn. 

Here are the ingredients:  popcorn kernels, olive oil, salt(we used Garlic salt), and a brown paper bag.

You put the popcorn kernels in a cup and pour olive oil and salt over them.  Mix. Then you dump them in the brown paper bag and fold it over twice. Put the bag in the microwave.

Our first batch BURNED!  We used 1/2 cup of kernels and popped it for 3 minutes.  Some of the kernels were still popping and coming out of the bag and all over the microwave, while the rest was burning.

So we tried again:

We used 1/4 cup of popcorn kernels and popped for 1 1/2 minutes.  YUMMY!!!
The girls LOVED IT.
