S'mores Popcorn, a good movie, and my favorite guy cuddled up on the couch with me is my ultimate movie night! I confess! I'm a homebody. What's your ultimate movie night?

Don and I spend our date nights curled up on the couch munching on crunchy snacks and watching movies. It's the perfect date night! Cozy and romantic... even if we're watching Full Metal Jacket <smile>. To create the movie theater feel for our at home movie night, we turn off the phones, turn down the lights, and turn up the volume on the TV! Just like being at the movies! Well, except no noisy people sitting behind us, and we didn't have to drain our bank account either! Going to the movies is expensive folks!

Our snack of choice is this scrumptious S'mores Popcorn. It makes up in a jiffy and is the perfect crunchy snack for munching when watching a good movie!

Popcorn is a great movie snack all on its own, but it's fun to dress it up once in a while. My S'mores Popcorn is loaded with mini marshmallows, chunks of graham crackers, and M&M's®, because popcorn and M&M's® just go together! Am I right?!

This tasty movie night snack is easy to make too. Start by popping some microwaveable popcorn, such as Orville Redenbacher's Movie Theater Butter flavor, because it's yummy and it doesn't leave you with a bunch of those pesky old maids!


Spread the popcorn, mini marshmallows, chunks of graham crackers, and M&M's® into a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Why white chocolate on s'mores you ask? That's just the way we roll <wink>

You can't argue with that kind of beautiful!

Don and I had a great date night! It was his turn to choose the movie, and he picked Full Metal Jacket. It is a war drama set in the Vietnam era and follows a group of marine recruits through basic training. We enjoy thought provoking movies and Full Metal Jacket really delivers. We first saw Full Metal Jacket at the movies way back in the day when we were dating! It was nice to enjoy it again over 25 years later snuggled up warm and cozy in our private little 'movie theater' setting at home.
