Caramel Corn

I had a craving for caramel corn last night and found this recipe on The Food Network. It is really easy and you dont need the candy thermometer. It makes 8 quarts, so its alot but would be good for those big families or a party.

Im not sure how much unpopped corn but mine filled about 2 big popcorn bowls full and that was enough. Just measure as you go along.

Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Put the popped corn in a large roasting pan.
1 C. Butter
2 C. Brown sugar
1 t. salt
1/2 C. light corn syrup
1 t. baking soda

Put the first 4 ingredients in a heavy duty sauce pan. Cook on medium until it starts to boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Take off the heat and add the baking soda and stir well. Pour over popped corn and stir well. Bake in oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Then lay on wax paper to cool.

So yummy, my family can't get enough.

Cheaper Gas

I think that we should all move to Guatemala where gas is only 12 cents a gallon. I think its a good idea.

New blogging ideas

Well I have decided to add new things to my blog. I was going to start a new one but I thought it was too confusing. So, lately (I dont know if I am already nesting or what) but I have been wanting to try new foods and cleaning solutions and easier ways to keep the house clean. So Im going to post all my new tricks of the trade. I want to add some recipes that I have also. Maybe this will keep me blogging more. So please check back, and hopefully there will actually be something new.
