Day 119.  Yeah, we did it finally.  We made popcorn balls tonight.  They are so addictive.  I probably won't go to sleep for a while.  We use an old recipe that Stacy's Mimi passed down.  It uses white Karo syrup and butter and vanilla.   I don't know why we only make them around Halloween and Thanksgiving, except that it is for my own good.  Making popcorn balls has become a fall tradition for our family, and one I look forward to and hope will keep going.  Some traditions die because they are no longer relative to the family and some traditions continue because they bring the family closer together.  This one definitely brings us closer.
