Our little boy loves popcorn. We need to just utter the word and the little fella runs to the kitchen looking for “pocom”. He then helps Arvind in placing the pouch inside the microwave and even turns the microwave on. Then, he waits patiently, right next to his Dad, staring the microwave with a big bowl in his tiny hands. Watching those excited eyes as he starts munching the popcorns is a sheer joy. Also, he likes the rituals while eating. The big bowl needs to pass from Mamma to Avyan to Papa and all the way back, even though we are all sitting on the same couch. Of course, there are at times when he prefers to take the entire control of that bowl. We usually go for easy microwave popcorn that is loaded with butter or cheese. But occasionally, I do like to add some grown up flavors. This Sriracha Popcorn makes for a perfect snack with some chilled beer. Super yum! I did tone down the spice level, as the little fella couldn’t wait for me to finish the shoot so he could jump right in. I guess that my indulgence on popcorn during pregnancy had something to do with that.
