Alvah's movie night
10 year old Alvah is having a movie night with some friends.
"Oh yeah ofcourse, my dad isn't home we can have movie night at my place! "
Ofcourse dad is not always home but he has the tendency to show up suddenly.
But he left earlier today usually he doesn't come back so fast.
The girls and i have been planning this for a bit now. I met them via my martial arts classes.
The boys always go to the arcade or go race their bikes or go to a movie. They never invite us, stupid boys.
I had already prepared for the girls to come over, made a path through the hedge and have a rope ready to climb to my room.
If Nigel finds out i am sure dad will learn of it too.
"So we all see eachother at the corner. Bring snacks and such. "
Later that night we are all there. I lead them through the garden until we are under the balcony of my room. I hold out the rope and we help eachother go up. On the balcony i open my door and we silently move in.
I hear the exclamations of the girls that i live in such a house.
I then turn around "so we all brought something do i need to get something from the kitchen? "
Lara holds out a back with cornkernels
"You have to pop these. I couldn't get popcorn ready in time. "
I sigh "fine salty or sweet? "
The decision became caramel with a short explanation of sugar in a pan above heat.
"Yeah yeah i'll make it. Just pick out some movies."
Quietly i move to the kitchen grabbing a few pans, butter sugar.
This shouldn't be that hard i thought.
Starting the popcorn i suddenly realise. Lid! Else the popcorn will fly everywhere. The haply popping sounds start.
Now for caramel. A pan sugar. How much should i use. Ah well fill it up and we will see .
So i am not known for my patience. Dad says i might still learn it as i am young but i am 11 i won't learn that anymore don't have the time before you know i am an adult and stuff.
A strange bitter smell enters my nose and looking in the sugarpan it still looks like sugar. Maybe i should not have used half the bag.
The popcorn is done i think it stolled popping. How long did you have to wait after that?
Just a bit longer i think.
That smell is really persistent. It really comes from the sugarpan.
Maybe add some water.
With a pitcher in one hand and a glove and the lid in the other i pour in the water.
Oh something is happening now.
Within a blink of an eye there is black sticky stinky stuff everywhere.
How did i not get burned.
Calmly i turn of the heat. Grab a note and pen from the fridge.
"Will clean up tomorrow tried to make popcorn. Oops"
I just grab a few bags of crisps and such from the pantry then.
Who cooks for movie night anyway.
