Alexander is in the Hamptons, working on his college essays, I can only hope. Shari and I see a movie, The Switch, another sweet romantic comedy with a happy ending, I bring along my fat-free bland tasting popcorn. Last night I did the same, but when I bought my ticket I was handed a coupon. I was about to toss it when I saw it was not the usual offer for a drink and popcorn for ONLY $8 (or something equally ridiculous). No, this one was for: $1 on ANY size drink, and $1 for ANY size popcorn. I knew I’d go for the drink. But the popcorn? I was considering tossing my relatively tasteless 1 point popcorn bag for the real thing when I remembered something I’d read months ago. That movie theater popcorn was bad. I couldn’t remember how bad, but I remember it was shockingly bad. I thought of my new skinny black jeans and passed. My little bag of the fat-free popcorn with 4 points worth of pre-measured chocolate covered raisins mixed in tasted just fine.
