I know, I know. You are thinking, what in the world is "spunky" popcorn? Well since this is my year to find my "spunk," I am going to post anything that made me giggle inside with "spunk". My Easter popcorn falls into that category. It was just too much fun to make, too much fun to eat, too much fun to bag up and give to neighbors...and even delivering the bags was just "spunky".
Here is what I made...it was worth the effort. Then Benjamin and I found some wonderful bags that summed up the occasion. I watched Benjamin skip down the sidewalk to deliver bags, stopping at different points to get a new grip on his bag...I wasn't sure that Benjamin Bunny would get his delivery made. After making deliveries we had one bag left....now whose was this bag? I felt a little "spunk" coming on.
I grabbed Benjamin and we started running toward the car. We jumped in and sped down our street to catch our "mail lady"! Yes, we blocked her mail truck with our car as she to stared at the "crazy, spunky woman" running at her. I put my head in the mail car door to announce I had brought her some popcorn and hoped she would enjoy it!!!
Isn't God Good? He allows us to have fun while sharing His love for others. My prayer is that our little bag of fun popcorn expressed His love through us!!
I hope you have a "spunky" popcorn!!!
Recipe for Kool-Aid Popcorn (click on Kool-Aid Popcorn) - hint: bake the popcorn. The air drying makes it too sticky...sorry neighbors, who got a mixture of both....and I added the pastel M&M's

What fun! is that your popcorn maker?
I am so glad you are having fun.
You do inspire me. :)
What a fun idea...definitely full of Spunk!
Great idea! I so wanted to do decorated cookies to take around this year but my energy level was at an all time low for some reason. Maybe next year...
It looks bright, colorful, and delicious! You are wonderful neighbors to have! Great bags, too.
What a fun neighbor you are! What a treat to receive a bag like that- so thoughtful!
I wish I could have seen the mail lady's face. First, the Dr. Seuss planter, now the spunky popcorn! She's not gonna forget your house :)
i even feel a little bit spunky now! what a
delightful gift for your neighbors and mail
lady. you are such an inspiration!
Oh Janette what a perfectly wonderful idea and thing to do! I love it. I bet the neighbors all did too. And I can just see little Benjamin delievering his precious gifts. Your "spunky popcorn" just made my day all the way over here! HUGS
Oh I love it! It's so pretty!
How nice of you! I bet all that spunk and crunch gladdened many a heart!
What a wonderful idea, Janette! It looks fun to eat as well as give away. You are the most creative woman I have ever met!
You are too creative and spunky, haha. What a great idea, stickiness and all.
This is great...what a terrific way of sharing the "good news" with your neighbors.
Thinking this is like carmel corn only spunkier?? this is cool, gonna make some this weekend...we have a birthday to celebrate and I think this would be a great addition to the treats. Thanks for sharing this.
Love the popcorn maker. You may remember when everyone had an air popper, they seemed to be the 'wedding gift' everyone got. Sure wish I had mine but microwave is so easy :/
Love the bags too.
What a GREAT idea! You truly are a spunky gal! sounds like Benjamin will catch the 'spunk' from you, too.
It's fun to make the most of every opportunity to share the life within us! I'll have to remember this idea.
My favorite part is the visual image that I have of you chasing down the mail truck with your bag of spunk in hand.
I had seen some recipes for popcorn using koolaid, but I have never tried them. Now, I want to. I'll remember the tip about the air dry.
"I felt the spunk coming on."
Love this sentence.
Benjamin is seeing how to live.
Giving,loving and having fun while doing it.
I would of eatten the last bag.
Next time I have one left, I'm giving it away. I will remember to "feel the spunk coming on".
I totally love this. We dd something like this once with cookies and loved making people smile with something so simple. I thonk you're really teaching your kids awesome lessons....giving....kindness and fun in the journey...
You would be soooooooooo FUN to hang out with. Wished you didn't live soooooooooooo far away. ((sigh)) I love love love your spunk girl! And I think I will have to try making some spunky popcorn in the future. I know my boys would love it. [o= And what a fun way to bless others to boot. ((grin))

I love pop corn.
Wish I was your neighbor ... what a sweet thing to do for them! I also love the example you are setting for your son. He has your "spunk," I'm sure!
