Hooray, you came back! Have you subscribed to get my FREE daily updates via email? And don't forget to "like" my Facebook fan page where I post interesting links and chat daily with my 6000+ fans. See you there!

This week The 4 Moms are sharing snacks and appetizers that will feed a crowd.

Our all time favorite snack for a crowd is popcorn. In fact, I have been pricing those movie theater popcorn machines on Ebay just for fun.

Popcorn is inexpensive, filling, healthy, and versatile.

It can be sweet or salty. It can be made into popcorn balls,

 

caramel corn,

 

or just served plain. What’s not to love?

Now, be sure to check out what the rest of my team is serving:

When my sister graduated from medical school, she asked for and received one of those big popcorn machines. It makes really good popcorn, and we’ve enjoyed it at a lot of family gatherings:)!

Have you ever tried peanut butter popcorn? That’s really yummy, too!

I think there might be a typo in the Raising Olives link’s address.

I’m with Moriah on the question! I keep checking for a newsletter from Life in a Shoe b/c I think Kim said she would make an announcement in the newsletter.

We love popcorn at our home. On Friday nights we have pizza and popcorn night. I am sure my little ones would love the colored popcorn balls!

We do candied popcorn for get-togethers. Take a cup of popped popcorn (w/all the unpopped kernels pulled out), melt almond a pkg of almond bark, mix them together. Lay it out on wax paper to cool. It’s REALLY yummy if you use 1/2 a pkg of white almond bark and then melt 1/2 a pkg of chocolate almond bark. Once they are each flavor has cooled, mix the popcorn in a bowl.

I must confess, I’ve begun to only make the chocolate and stash it… It’s my favorite! :)

I am a popcorn addict! my dad used to make a huge bowl every Sunday and he and I would share it, everyone else in the family either had a little bit or none at all! I think about him every time I think of popcorn!
