I have a confession to make. I don't use a microwave! Gasp! I know! I know! However do I survive? LOL. Believe me I manage. When we did have a microwave the only thing I really used it for was melting butter and popping corn. So when we got rid of it, I missed my popcorn terribly. Hence the reason for this post. It wasn't long after we got rid of the microwave that we purchased this Hot Air Popper. We've had it for a few years now and love it. I thought a demonstration would be fun, so enjoy. Oh and you may need to tilt your head just a little because the person doing the video taping didn't realize that you couldn't switch from vertical to horizontal without messing everything up. But you'll get the idea just the same. Please watch it as it took me over an hour to upload it! LOL.
Wasn't that fun? You too could have that much fun right there in the comfort of your own home. Yes sir, for just $19.99 you could own your own Hot Air Popper and make your own silly videos of your family getting all excited over something as simple as popping corn! Oh and I highly recommend the white corn not the yellow!
This not doing it for you? Well then hop on over to We are That Family and see if you can find something that will!
Big Giant Hugs!!
Kimmy,
ReplyDeleteI watched it once and then Jay had to come see what all the excitement was about ...lol
Now we both want popcorn at 8:00 AM! lol
Too cute ... love ya bunches!
Too funny. I used to own one of those poppers too. Now I have the smallest microwave ever, to pop my corn.
ReplyDeleteI have a sore neck now. LOL
How funny! We love popcorn and I use an air popper for my microwave. We love it!! :D
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to start the day! I loved loved loved the way the kids were so excited! You could hear them in the background just so thrilled! That's worth going microwave-free, my friend (at least for the popcorn.)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your sweet encouragement and kind words on my post for today. Yep, I write 'em all myself. Book-worthy? I'm humbled! Bless you and big Mississippi hugs, my friend.
Very fun! I remember having one of those when I was little. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat video! Your husband is a wonderful host!! I used to love the popcorn you popped on the stove top and remember all of us kids getting very excited watching the container expand. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteWow! I felt like you came to my house and took that video (except of course with your family). :) We haven't had a microwave in about 2 years. And I get along fine without it! We have like 4 of those poppers, have to with a family of 11. The only difference is we use olive oil spray and popcorn seasonings. (Personally, I still love the real melted butter and salt on mine). We even have the big metal bowls!
ReplyDeleteBTW...we enjoyed the video (but we didn't lean our heads over, we just watched it like it was, it was still entertaining).
What a trip! We use a hot air popper too. Though, I get mine from yard sales. We LOVE it!!
ReplyDeleteI had to giggle at your Smart Balance butter. We use that too but my DH doesn't like it because he says it doesn't melt.LOL
GASP... no microwave cooking... For the longest time my son when asked how mommy cooks things, would answer with a "beep, beep, beep"! How embarasing!! :o)
ReplyDeleteHi Kim! Looks like you are well. Hope you get your 100friends today. You are so creative, I love the idea of this fun popcorn video. So much healthier too!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! Our microwave bit the dust about a month ago....and we haven't had the extra cash to replace it. At first I thought we would all die of starvation without it....but we're still here (I actually found a great way to broil my nachos.....AHHAHAHAHHAHA.....) and I think I've even put on a few pounds. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the video~ You all seem like such a fun, happy family!! I love to read about great families like yours.
ReplyDeleteGreat video, I don't have a microwave either...we just didn't use it. I can't stand microwave popcorn...nothing like freshly made popcorn!!
ReplyDeleteKim, what a great post! Even if I had to look at it sideways...LOL! Too funny! Your hubby was great and I loved your little guy in the background making faces! We have an Air Popper also! DH loves it, but we have never used to butter-melter-dish..LOL! I will have to try it
ReplyDeleteAre you considered a lurker if you leave comments? I have been coming by for awhile. I just read your friends post and joined your list. I think I put you at 101 congrats.
ReplyDeleteBTW I loved the popcorn post!
Blessings,
Sherry
How much fun! What a handsome hubby and cute kiddos! I got to hear your voice too! I loved it, even though my neck is a little stiff now, it was worth it. My parents have a hot air popper I just realized. It does make good popcorn. Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteOh that was so fun!! Your husband is funny! "Oooh I'm going to be on the internet!" LOL I don't think my hubby would let me get away with putting him on the net like that, so kuddos to him!
ReplyDeleteMy kids were intrigued by the whole thing! :) Thanks for the entertainment. :)
Just got back from the chiropractor after watching your video - LOL!! I LOVED the video! Your hubby was great and it was so fun to see how excited the boys got. And it cracked me up when the lense fogged up! It was like I was really there - ha,ha! :)
ReplyDeleteMy Dad had one of those when I was in high school and the butter would melt and drip down onto the popcorn. We had it regularly and added salt of course. Yum.
Excellent entertaining post my friend!! And you are past 100 followers - where's that giveaway? LOL!
Have a wonderful day! Big Buttery Pop-Pop-Poppop-poppitypoppoppop hugs to you today!!! :)
AW, phooey! I'll have to wait'll tomorrow to watch... assuming I make it to the lieberry then. Meanwhile, I'll take your word for its funocity. 8-]
ReplyDeleteHave a JESUS-filled day! ^i^
Your husband is hilarious. Loved this entry. This was the first time I did a Works For Me Wednesday.
ReplyDelete(I really love your blog!)
I'm so glad you posted the video because it brought back college dorm memories! I loved using a hot air popper and now thanks to your video, you show how much fun it can be. So much more fun than microwave popcorn. I may have to look for one while garage saling this summer.
ReplyDeleteYou should post a "how to" on how to put a video on a post. I'd be interested!!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Your blog is really cute!
ReplyDelete~Liz
Too Cute! We have a air popcorn popper also and my kids love it! It is so much fun to watch it pop!
ReplyDeleteI love air popped corn, too, and we DO have a microwave. Air popped is so much better than microwave. OK, it helps that I use real butter and add Parmesan Cheese. ;-)
