I got a text this morning saying "Grandma is having a popcorn party tonight at 7. Everyone is invited. Call grandma with questions." It was a Wednesday, the girls have daycare tomorrow, I have work. It's hard to do things 'in the cities' on weeknights since that means driving 30-40 minutes in to hangout and then 30-40 minutes home at night. The kids will sleep in the car on the way home but it's disruptive and when you are a family of a pretty normal and consistent routine, the littlest change to that can be enough to send people into the crankies the next day.
I called grandma to tell her thanks for the invite but we wouldn't be making it and her response to me was "Well, that's ok honey. I know it's hard with the girls. I just felt I had to do something to celebrate so I decided why not a popcorn party!". Celebrate? This is a celebration? For?
Tunrs out this popcorn party was grandma's version of a bachelorette and bachelor party.
By the way, my mom and Tom are getting married tomorrow- Congrats you two!
Well, grandma sure out did herself with this one! There was popcorn, alright- plain popcorn, cheese popcorn, caramel popcorn, puffcorn, flamin' hot puffcorn, popcorn with cashews, popcorn without cashews.
