    It’s much cheaper and nicer to buy popping corn.  You can still make it in the microwave by putting it in a paper bag with the top folded under.  Tip into a bowl once done, spray with oil and sprinkle some sugar and/or salt on it and give a shake.

    Well at least you know they don’t like the plain stuff!  At that price it’s not too pricey so worth sticking with it.
  • That is a great bargain from Morrisons, like you say, usually fine for a while yet.  Well done on getting the pay out from Jet2. All the talk of baking is making me think of getting my bakestone out & making some Welsh cakes. You really are so industrious and hard working. Your little family should be so proud of you  <3
