[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 392156, member: 1233"] My parents came up for Thanksgiving one year when we lived in OH. Mom was at my uncle's getting things ready there and I was going to cook the turkey at our apartment so the dogs didn't go nuts at my uncle's house and so the house wouldn't be so overheated when it came time for dinner. Plus I didn't have time to spend at his house while it cooked and I was responsible for the turkey (my mom can NOT cook a turkey unless you want to eat shoe leather, never met someone who could make a turkey as bad as hers!). husband had made popcorn earlier that day, and had left the almost new bag of popcorn on the stove. About an hour and a half after I put the turkey in the oven my dad and I start hearing "pop pop pop pop pop pop". I grabbed the bag of popcorn off the stove (hadn't realized it was on a burner, got pushed back onto it by mistake) and the popping noise continued. Turned out that husband had spilled a LOT of popcorn on the stove and most of it went down under the burner. The sheer quantity of popcorn was enough, when popped, to lift up the top of the stove (it was designed to lift up so you can clean the area under the burners)!!! To this day the joke is that I stuff the bird full of popcorn and when it blows the turkey up I know the bird is done!! LOL!!! [/QUOTE]
