Blessing number 5 :)

Blessing number 5

 Service and POPCORN!
 Every Friday at the institute they hold a "Food and Forum" which is a mini-fireside followed by lunch. Today was the first time that I went, and it was a very good experience, so I think I'll be making it a regular thing.

We talked about service because a couple had just gotten back from their mission in Nauvoo. They shared some really awesome stories about families that had been converted. They also told us that in all the years they've been doing the Nauvoo pageant they haven't been rained out even once! Craziness I tell you!

Anyway, after the speakers were done we moved into the gym for hamburgers. The refreshments were leftover from the Halloween dance, which was fine by me because it was absolutely delicious popcorn from the Popcorn Shop!


Have you ever heard of The Popcorn Shop? It's an awesome business here in Poky that makes every flavor of popcorn imaginable. My favorite is Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake :) The first time you go in you get a free cup of popcorn free, which rocks. 

The flavors were Tutti-Frutti and Pumpkin Pie :) I actually don't know if Tutti-Frutti was a flavor, but that's what it tastes like. That one's pretty cool because it's orange and purple for Halloween :)

After the lunch was over a bunch of people started grabbing the leftover bags from the buns and stuffing them with the popcorn. Kenna, Mystie, and I decided that it was a fabulous idea because this popcorn is usually pretty expensive. Here's what we came away with:

Just so you know, bags this big at The Popcorn Shop cost upwards of $10, so this is a huge treat! YUMM!
