homemade popcorn

for the past few days, we have been craving sweet stuff and since i had already bought the corn to make popcorn a long time ago i decided to try. it's actually quite simple really and fun too.


all you need is:
popcorn kernels, oil, sugar, honey and butter

how to:

1. heat oil in pan till hot, you can drop a corn kernel in and let it pop before you put the rest of the kernes in.  only put a layer on the saucepan or you will end up with burnt popcorn like i did -_-
2. cover with tight fitting lid, when you start hearing the corn pop shake saucepan lightly. once everything has finished popping, remove from heat and transfer into container.
3. now the best part - the caramel. combine butter, sugar and honey over medium heat and keep stirring until it boils. boil without stirring until light golden.
4. pour caramel over popcorn and mix till coated and tah dah!!

sweet cravings satisfied!

surprise party!

tonight jon organised a surprise birthday thing for germs... she's turning a quarter of a century old :p i had no idea what the plans were.... all i knew was that it was a surprised and we were meant to be there at 6pm (it's been ages since someone had such a big surprise party which kinda jadi-ed).



we were there early so we spend time sitting around and chilling.... i was just hungry and waiting to eat >.<



ping & leanne were the two that had to keep her out of the house till 6:30... apparently they were not very good lying coz she became pretty suspicious after a while >.< hahaha they were arguing about who stole who's line when they got into the house.



whether she was surprised or not, i'm not too sure. all i know is i failed at the popper thing coz i couldn't twist mine right. -_- bad shapes!



so sweet, he baked the cake himself and had some help cooking all the food. and she blew the cake before making the wish o_O





happy early birthday Germs.... you are about to be a quarter of a century old soon. hope you have an awesome one on the real day.
