We have this amazing caramel corn shop here in Chicago called Garrett's Popcorn. Oh my goodness! The smell floats out of the shop, down the street around the buildings and through all of the people. It puts a spell on you and literally pulls you into the store with a force that is beyond your control. <br />You can't fight it, so don't even try. Well, I was in the city on Saturday with my daughter and as we were criss-crossing the busy streets filled with shoppers and street musicians, we were instantly overcome with an uncontrollable desire for caramel corn. I had this week's contest rolling around in my brain, and when that magic smell hit me, I thought about corn. Corn! Caramel corn is corn, right? I happen to have a fabulous caramel corn recipe that I originally came across on one of my favorite food blogs. I tried it, loved it, altered it a bit and have made it dozens of times. I can't stop making it because it's so simple and really delicious. So, being the right-brained creative thinker that I am, I figured this would make a great corn entry! If you can't get over to Garrett's, you really have to try making this one. <br />
