Fondue Night

...or should I say Fondue CRAZY Night!

On Saturday I decided to be ambitious and have a family fondue night for dinner. (Trust me, cooking hasn't exactly been a priority in my life lately.) I'm not going to lie, it was a LOT of work and it wasn't the most pleasant family dinner we've ever had... There was lots of crying (mostly from Ally, but also occasionally from a napless Spencer), it was noisy, it was messy, afterward I was exhausted (we'd taken the kids swimming earlier in the day), and of course my kitchen looked like this when we were all done...


But the food was GREAT! During dinner I kept wishing we'd put the kids down to bed first and THEN made the fondue so Kyle and I could have a nice quiet romantic (?) meal, but as we were putting the kids to bed Janelle came up to me and said, "Mom, that was the BEST dinner!" So all in all, despite the craziness, it was worth it. :)

Go to E's Recipe Corner for the recipes, they turned out GREAT!!!

How fun and looks delicious. And your kitchen on a "bad" day still isn't bad at all.
