3 Popcorn Recipes for your Scandal Watch Party

all-3

Hello, everyone! Since I spent the last couple of weeks recovering from arm surgery, I decided to line up a really amazing set of guest posts while I finish my last week of bed rest! My first guest poster is Katie from A Touch of Teal, who is also another fellow DC area blogger (we may or may not live in the same high rise in Arlington!) Katie is a super talented blogger that you should check out immediately if you’re into entertaining, home decor, style, DIY projects and more! 

Hi Everyone! My name is Katie, and while I usually blog over at A Touch of Teal, I am beyond thrilled​ to be guest posting on Alicia Tenise today. It’s no secret Alicia loves Scandal, and since we’re lucky enough to be neighbors, we often watch together. Overtime, we’ve perfected our #TGIT viewing parties. Not only do we indulge in red wine out of Olivia Pope sized glasses, we take our popcorn very seriously. So when Alicia asked me to guest post, I knew I wanted to share three of our go-to popcorn recipes for Thursday nights in Shondaland — enjoy!

    These popcorn recipes sound so good! This post also reminded me how much I miss Scandal! But I think we still have almost two more months before it returns. 🙁
