Help yourself!

I was planning to have leftovers for dinner the other night when Lukas asked if we could have fondue.  Why not?

I had purchased several fondue kits from Trader Joe's (why mess with an easy solution?  I've had trouble getting the cheese to melt properly with a fondue recipe) and pulled one out to warm up.  Then I used the leftover sausage and meat, apples, pears and plums, and a loaf of bread Tom ran to the store for and...voilá, dinner with salad on the side!



In addition to being excited to have the first fondue meal of the season, Lukas was also pleased to see me use the lazy Susan that Tom's mom gave us when they moved into their apartment.  And I have to say that this is the perfect meal for the lazy Susan...much better than 9 little bowls of things.

But after all that preparation (which only took about 15 minutes) I admit that the combo I like best is bread dipped in the cheese.  The other meat and fruit doesn't hold a candle to bread and cheese.

    I made cheese fondue two times a couple weekends ago! Had too. Always have extra dippers : ) Love it! My favorite dipper is cauliflower. After seeing your post, I want to make it again! Kelly F
