1. It's a teapot ! It's no hoax, folks!
I told ya I was inspired by the Balloon Boy's air-craft!! The first package of Jiffy Pop I popped, I opened it wrong and the popcorn popped all over the kitchen. I musta broke a seal or something.
2. I made this goofy thing for today's Teapot Tuesday Challenge.
3. We are going to the North Pole to bring Santa a new flying machine and save Christmas!

Jiffy pop, Jiffy pop what a treat, as much fun to make it as it is to eat! That dates from a loooooong time ago huh! But I still love Jiffy Pop, Orville can go sit down somewhere. LOL

This is one creative teapot. You might want to send the idea to the jiffy pop people. Saw a sign on a Denver area business that made me laugh.

Gee, Miss Peggy must be really old or sumpin'. She's singin' jingles from the olden days. I had to Google it to knows what she wuz talkin' 'bout. Awww, that's okay, I reckon. I likes Miss Peggy; she's so much fun at da tea parties.
And look at you in all your cleverness. This hot air balloon tea pot is is high-falootin' rocket science! I wunner what would happen if you put this shiny silvery metallic thingie in the microwave? Hmmmm....
No, stop, Gertie!!! Don't listen to Bionic Burdie! She's got a screw loose; everyone KNOWS you don't put metal in a microwave. Whoa!

This is hysterical. I am hoping you have a bookshelf full of all the 3D teapots you have made through the years. Maybe if we put the jiffy pot on the stove and Santa on the jiffy pot, he would be jet propelled by the popcorn?
Ok ... maybe not.
