National Popcorn Day

19 January is National Popcorn Day!

If you think I like cats, you should see me around a bowl of freshly popped popcorn!

Hint: you'd better get your hand out of there, or risk injury...

Enjoy some silly stuff that I've found on social media, included here only for the entertainment of our readers:

Popcorn Pride!

It's Twozday!

And I'm so proud of my sons; they take after me and LURV popcorn!

When this tin full of four different popcorn flavors arrived, Manny and Chili Bruce had to check it out!

Don't worry; we only allowed them a broken popped kernel each, even though they tried for more!

The Struggle Is Real

What you don't see in this photo is
the bowl of popcorn that The Hubby
has clutched to his chest, guarding it from Da Boyz!

Ouchie

While preparing for my family Christmas Eve gathering, I wrenched my back something awful.  The Hubby helped me to bed to lay down, brought up a bag of frozen corn kernels (for the ouchie spot on my spine), and pain pills. Until this morning, that's all I could do for days; even laughing hurt!  Could barely pull on socks...well, we've all had our aches and pains.  Sweetie and Patty O'Malley ate tuna for Christmas dinner, and Angel and Chuck were offered popcorn.

Am better now, thanks to rest.  And although the temps have been mild here in Michigan, it is now dropping into freezing territory. My sympathies go out to the folks in Texas and parts of the South that are getting hammered by storms and cold.  

Stray Whisker

Patty lost a whisker in the outside water bucket.  He's got the coolest whiskers; they start as dark brown or black nearest his face, then turn white on the ends.

Chucky's whiskers are all black, and Angel's are just plain white.  I've carefully saved a few shed whiskers from both cats...dunno why, just have...but Angel does a funny thing with hers.  If I find one of her long white whiskers, I'll often use it as a toy, and Angel will ALWAYS eat the thing!  She grabs it out of my fingers with her teeth, and she'll chew it down.  Weird...and kind of gross.  She also eats cobwebs, popcorn, and licks my sprouted wheat bread toast.  But the face she makes when I hold up a banana would have you rolling on the floor with laughter; it's as close to a Bitter Beer Face as any cat could manage!  I'll have to try to capture that face in a photo someday, as she scrunches up her nose and pulls her head back.

Thief

I rarely eat popcorn, but when I do, it's air-popped and low-sodium. Angel apparently enjoys the same thing!  She only had a few kernels, just so you know.  But she stole 'em, and here's the evidence.
