What better way to spend a rainy day...

...then curled up at home with a bowl of popcorn, listening to Christmas music and the rain coming down.

With our drought, we really need this rain. Although I feel for U. who had to drive in the rain to the office.

It was Astrid's first time seeing & eating popcorn. "Popcorn for Astrid?" she asked. She loved it. I just had to make sure she didn't eat any unpopped kernels at the bottom of the bowl. She told me something was stuck in her teeth, and once she got out it "I got it mommy!" (she wouldn't let me help her) she showed it to me and asked me what it was. Pretty entertaining to watch my kid experience popcorn for the first time.
