Great Money Saving Lunch Snack Tip: Popcorn

So Leo loves popcorn.  Seriously.  Today it occurred to me that instead of popping a whole bag of microwavable popcorn for just him - I could make an individual packet using wax paper bags (which are microwave safe) and a few popcorn kernels (which when purchased in bulk at the park slope food coop they cost like negative cents), seal it by folding it over a few times and popping away.  One note though - you'll have to adjust the amount of popping time on your microwave.  The popcorn setting is too long for just a handful of kernels and I scorched the first batch pretty bad.  The second came out perfect.  Voila! Cheap and toddler sized   popcorn to go.
