May 10 th Thursday One of my friends usually gives me a ride to Lotus where I work at; however, he had two finals today so I didn’t force him to get up as early as before.

But Sammy Jo told me we needded to mix something together to make them taste sweet.) Secondly, we combined butter, corn syrup and brown sugar in a pot and heated the mixture until it came to a full boil. Thirdly, we stirred baking soda and vanilla into the mixture. After that we poured the mixture over popped popcorn in a bakeware. ...940 days ago
