Let’s start with the required weekly photo of Lord Dudley Mountcatten.

Say what you will about cats, the creatures know how to relax.

This marketing strategy seemed a bit extreme for fresh water from the Alps. Death isn’t normally what I look for when buying natural spring water… but to each their own.

The husband had been sputtering about a hot air popper for a while now, so I broke down and bought him one. Aside from breaking the top cover on the second go around, it looks like he hasn’t quite mastered the proper kernel to bowl ratio yet either….

A tent for office naps? I fail to see how this won’t be noticed by management.

As we began, so shall we end.
Lord Dudley Mountcatten, looking less than pleased with the photographer.

Let me get this straight…..5,975 posts about how your hubby is accumulating too much stuff, and then you go out and buy him something that will spend about .000001% of it’s lifespan in use? Why not just microwave popcorn, since you already have a microwave? 🙂

Too much salt and too many chemicals in microwave popcorn. And he’s actually in love with this thing, uses it five times a week.

To spins’ note, there are now microwave air popping devices. Maybe try that if hubby breaks his toy.
I make popcorn with a deep pan on the stove.

Pan on the stove is too much like cooking for my husband…

I understand. I did microwave till mine died and I didn’t replace it. Now I sometime buy bagged popcorn, cause I’m lazy.

Nice drivel today. I really want to rub that big furry belly. (The cat, not you). You can’t murder your thirst, you can only appease it for the moment. The air popper isn’t so bad. I know you are glad not to be showing a shot of him deep frying a turkey. The office tent is pretty good. All you need are a couple dozen empties to scatter around and a fire, and you will be ready to explore the world’s great city parks, vacant lots and overpasses when they let you out of jail. His Lordship’s eyes are beautiful, grouchy or not, and I’m sure you are about five seconds of behind the ear rubbing away from his good graces. I had a crappy night of little to no sleep and this helped me get my mind right for the day. Thanks.

My belly might be big, but at least it’s not furry. Yet…
Glad my post started your day off right. I’ll relay your gratitude to his lordship. Not that he’ll care, but still.

He’s relaxing? That looks like a side crunch to me.
I’m guessing your husband will blame the popper for not being high-tech enough (like the toaster). I sense that a more robotic popper is in your future.
I think you just tell your boss that you work so hard and so late that you have to sleep at the office.

The husband has no problem with a little scattered popcorn. But when I step on the unpopped kernels in my bare feet? Not good.

Lord Dudley,…what a great pic and creature. Aww. I remember the air poppers! I couldn’t help but admire the pottery and bird pics in the background (and hubby doing a poppin’ good job trying to catch it all!).

The pottery is from a local place called Edgecomb Pottery. They invented the technique you see in my kitchen. I collect a few of their color patterns for different rooms. Really nice work.

That flavor of Liquid Death is Severed Lime. Nice touch. I think they could replace the skull on the can with that last pic of Dudley and make their point much better….

I’m with the hubs on microwave pop corn. I buy the old school pop corn and make it on the stove. Love the pics of his Lordship, regal as always.

It’s funny… when I bought him the popper I also got 3 bottles of fancy different colored kernels. Turns out all of them are too small for the machine. You turn it on and they just come flying out all over the kitchen. Good times!

We have an air popper boxed up in storage. It’s one of the things I’ll look forward to most once we get moved in and unpacked. I love that thing! We tried making stovetop popcorn once a couple of months ago, and that was such a fail, we actually broke down and bought microwave popcorn. All I can say is, nothing beats an air popper!
