Evening with Friends


So I spent the evening tonight with some friends I haven't seen in a long time, and let me tell you that after all the fun we had, I don't want to wait another 6 months to do it again. We went to Lynn's house for a fondue - Sheri, Joylynn, Carla and myself - now, for those of you who have never been to a fondue, it's quite a social activity. We sat around and chopped veggies & fruit, sliced beef & chicken, cut cake & donuts, and drank a lot of wine. We had a traditional oil fondue, a cheese fondue AND a chocolate fondue. What a feast! We kept saying to each other "look at all this food", but by the time the night was over most of the food was gone...and so was the wine! A fondue is a great opportunity to get together and chat about this or that, gossip about various things, and just basically relax and enjoy each other's company. We laughed over the silliest things (Lynn, I promise I won't put your "almost got laid" story on here), and just basically had a really good time. Lynn, thank you for the evening, I enjoyed it thoroughly, but next time you should come to mine & Carla's side of town...but you may have to pick Sheri up on the way...haha! Carla, you might be on the hook to "hostess" the event if I can't send the dogs on a sleepover...unless I can convince Joy that they're really two tiny little lap dogs ... LOL!

I don't want to wait 6 more months either! What a great time! For what it is worth, I took the leftovers and had a fondue the next night with my friend Brad and my daughter Christina. Just Oil and chocolate! By the way, MY Weight Watchers weigh in this Saturday was UP 1.0 lbs. I wonder what could have possible contributed to that!!!! Oh well, the strawberries and chocolate were WONDERFUL! By the way, I know I still have to get you the recipe for the low-cal cheese fondue!
