Fun Night of Fu Fu Fondue and Good Friends

Last night our friends had a fondue party that we went to. It was a really good time and I must say that they did a great job of setting up a fondue party. There was a station for a cheese fondue with one pot of orange cheese and another pot filled with white cheese. The choice of dippings were a bunch of different blanched veggies and bread. My friend, Amber, was very proud of herself for blanching the veggies. Then there was a meat station where you had your choice of chicken, beef or shrimp to cook in a pot of oil or chicken broth. Then to top the fondue party off they had a chocolate fountain with bananas (which were AWESOME), strawberries, animal crackers, pineapple and a couple other options. I was pretty impressed with the setup of the fondue party. Kudos to the Campbell’s as this might have been better than the Melting Pot, but I wouldn’t know since Andy has yet to take me there. There was also a game of cards, progressive rummy, the same card game as when we were camping…these are the campers that we hung out with. Needless to say Andy and I were nowhere near winning the card game. I guess we are just not card people. The evening topped off with my friends making fun of me and not believing in me…yup that’s right. They think I will not last in the car ride back to WI for the long journey home for Xmas. They think I won’t contribute to the driving…they are wrong. (Oh, by the way, we are driving back to Wisco for Xmas…yup, driving.) They think I am high maintenance, but I am not sure where they got that idea. I drove myself out here when we moved here, the whole 24 hours I drove by myself so I am sure I can contribute my half of the driving this week. We are going to keep a record of how much I drove so I can prove to my friends that I am not high maintenance, but instead medium high maintenance.

There is nothing wrong with being high maintenance.... don't fight it, just join the club.

Again...not high maintenance, but medium high...I can at least admit to that.
