Popcorn!

So popcorn is the favorite of all snacks for Andrew. He loves to ask for it,and more than that, he loves to help make it. We buy the mini bags, and pop them in the microwave. Andrew has entirely mastered this concept. It goes something like this:

Andrew asks for popcorn
I tell him to open the microwave (and get down the bag from a high shelf)
Andrew opens the microwave while I open the bag
Andrew puts it in, the proper side up as long as I don't flatten it too much.
Andrew closes the mirowave and says "0" "1" "2" "0" "Start" which translates to the cook button, the 1, the 2, the 0 and the start button. My how we love that the mini bags cook up in less than a minute and a half.
Andrew then stands there and counts down from 20 to 0, then from 59 to 0 and squeels when the microwave goes off.
I open the microwave and pour the popcorn into a large bowl and give Andrew a small bowl of it
Andrew says "Thank you" and off he goes.

This is a very set process at our house, and one of Andrew's favorites. No one's allowed to babysit Andrew until they understand this process . . . . hehe
