The goof balls at work tried to make them and they left like 50 old maids in each ball to break your teeth on.
It seems they didn't know how to separate them.
For those of you that dont know what an old maid is in popcorn it is the un-popped kernels.
It was sometime back in the 60's that razor blades started showing up in Halloween candy.
I made some here at the house about 6 months ago.
I caramelized sugar in a skillet.
A very time consuming tedious thing to do but well worth learning.
Bill what did you do on your time off?
"Well I drank too much and got caught with another woman and am getting a divorce".
Worth what did you do on your time off?
"Well I drank a little, made pop corn balls, sausage and hot pepper preserves."
