When Life Hands You Corn on the Cob, Make Popcorn?


During our off-roading adventure through the corn maze, my roommate took an ear of corn to commemorate the occasion... and in hopes of making popcorn "the old-fashioned" way. Though the first attempt was a bit of a failure, she is still determined to succeed... Subsequent ventures in popping corn will be documented!
