Oh man! I am home this week from almost 4 weeks of travel and I am pretty thrilled to relax at home with Peter for his birthday tonight. Happy Birthday baby!
This week kicks off, as it will for the next few months, with my Food Matters Project post.
Tell me: WHO goes 28 years NEVER having made any popcorn but MICROWAVE popcorn?!
Well Kate, from COOKIE + Kate, made sure we all knew what we were missing with this week’s The Food Matter Project recipe.

Not really sure why we all grow up just eating the microwave kind. This was fast and simple, no bag necessary.
I chose to make my rendition a bit “spicy and sweet” {my favorite combo!}- with some melted butter, fresh cracked black pepper, salt, and sugar.
I actually cannot stop eating it right. this. minute…
After the popcorn is made, melt 3 tablespoon of butter with 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 teaspoons of fresh cracked black pepper. Toss the popcorn in the mixture and add more black pepper, to taste. I added more because I love how the cracked black pepper balances the sweet buttery sugary taste.
Follow the recipe to make the simple homemade popcorn over at COOKIE + kate and check out the other FMP members’ renditions here.
I also decided to make a handful covered in red candy coating for some Valentine’s Day love. <3 <3<3
