I have a cure when I feel blue. When I am home and it is late, there’s something first that I must do. It sure is easy, fast, and great. When I am home and it is late, I settle down to watch TV, which is a lot of fun for me. There’s something first that I must do. I grab a pan; some corn I pop, then drizzle butter on the top. It sure is easy, fast and great. I crunch on it throughout the night. With popcorn – everything’s all right!

Hi Andrea, it is something admirable from your part. If you can divert your mind with such a simple thing, life becomes so easy. If I am depressed, I lose interest in watching TV. What gives me some relief when I am blue is tending my plants. But at night, I can't do it. As a result, I get a sleepless night. Enjoyed your popcorn trick!

Gosh, you can still do that?! I'm impressed... My stomach hasn't let me do it for quite a while now. Miss those days too.

You have figured out how to make the blues stop, watching a movie and 'popping corn, drizzling butter on the top', Best wishes in the Contest

Air popped gives you a lot more for the calories, but not half as good as using oil to pop it in!

Great idea, but I am diabetic. There is so much prohibited food. Hugs.

parmesan with italian seasonings is incredible. Also lemon pepper salt!

A treat in ways never refute, an all round favorite thing that do well with snacking. The symbolism of niceness from such a stalk. Roast corn on the cob I had that one also. Good thing comes from a resolute mind.

I don't have a limit on my appetite. I lack the gene for feeling satiated when full, so I have to count calories and be careful not to overeat. Back in the day, I would get a large popcorn and go back for the refill, butter and all. I don't think many men can even eat as much as i used to eat in my youth!

Yes TV has a way of bringing us peace and ease... Nice idea for the contest..
