Angry Birds Popcorn Balls-Cause the Yellow One Gets Me

Thank you for sharing!

Oh, my yum! This recipe for lemon candy-flavored popcorn balls! Sounds so yummy. And that they're shaped like Angry Birds! Cutest. Snack. Ever. LOL!

I will not lie, I’m pretty sure that I’ve gone off the deep end. We were all wanting a sweet snack the other day–a little treat because it’s been so hot, the guys had been out in the yard and the girls–we’d been playing in the pool. Hard. Work. Heh. So, while the girls watched an episode of Angry Birds on Netflix, I got all inspired and made some Angry Birds Popcorn Balls. They’re lemon-candy flavored, topped with candy and just cute as a button. And really, really angry. LOL!

I’ll be honest, when I initially made the Angry Birds Lemonade Ice Cream, I think my husband thought I was crazy. But when he tasted it–well, he changed his mind. Then this. So much this. He is now certain I’ve lost my mind completely and totally.

But he won’t turn-down Angry Birds Popcorn Balls. Nope. Lemon is one of his VERY FAVORITE flavors and now I’d just doubled-down on the yummy lemon in his life. Heh. Plus, I made the kids giggle. And the hubs likes that–finds it amusing when they laugh. Heh.
