Carmel Corn

When Paige and I were 12 well I guess until we got a life which was not until we were almost 16. This was probably because Paige & I had each other. We would babysit for our parents almost every weekend if we weren't babysitting for other families. We would watch Family Matters & Full House I'm sure there were more but, I can't remember them.
My favorite thing to do was make this yummy recipe of Carmel corn. Last night after dinner & made it and it sure brought back some memories! I should have waited and posted this for Memory Lane Monday.
The funny thing is I have not made this since I was young. This will really explain how much I write things down & it started very young. I found some of my old journals one that my mom kept when Paige & I were 5 years old. And, the other one I just looked threw is one when I was 13-14 years old. In that journal I had wrote the Carmel corn recipe down.

It is so easy!!!
Try it one of these nights. I used microwave popcorn but, it would even be better with air popped!

1/2 cup Karo syrup
1 cup brown sugar
1 stick of butter *I only had buttered microwave popcorn so I only used 1/2 a stick.

Put in a microwave safe bowl put in microwave until melted. (About 1 1/2 to 2 min.)
Add to popcorn & stir until all popcorn is coated.

Enjoy!!!
I would have took a picture but, it was gobbled up too fast!!
