this picture says a couple of things: #1 love is grand #2 monday night date night is the bomb (does anyone use that word anymore?) #3 I'm in need of some sunshine to knock out the pasty white skin |
last week Monday... Justin and I went to The Melting Pot and enjoyed a fun, sexy dinner of fondue -------------------------------- if you have one in your area (yay for you!) you need to check out the GNO special on Monday Nights I called ahead to see if the hubs and I could qualify for the awesome pricing so for $16 a piece we enjoyed a cheese fondue, a salad, and a dessert fondue our waiter lit on fire. flambe! Justin paid a little extra to get a meat course thrown in-- I think it had something to do with the waiter and how he kept repeating "Girls Night Out special" everytime he referenced our food the meat course clearly counter-acted that |
my friend, Lynn, has an incredible recipe for fondue
and she throws incredible fondue parties.....
like the one I went to about this time last year. oh my.
(Lynn, if you are reading this I'd totally make the 3 1/2 hr trek to come again!)
she shared with me her recipe for chocolate fondue
and I made it last summer for my sister Holly's bridal shower
isn't she pretty?
yeah....I totally didn't get a picture of the delish fondue
however....that trifle to the left there?
yep, that one
I'm going to need to blog up that recipe sometime
cause it's a keeper for sure
but I get off track because you're still wondering about the
fondue
you're going to be running to the store for the ingredients to make
so here you go--
Fondue is Fundue
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 bag butterscotch chips
4 squares unsweetened chocolate
1 jar marshmellow fluff
1/2 c milk
1 t vanilla
mix all ingredients over LOW until melted through
add milk if it's too thick
totally meant to make this over the weekend....
maybe tomorrow!
have a SUPER day!
love, Laurie for the fam
So glad you explained what GNO stood for... maybe it's my early morning fuzzy mind but I sat there trying to figure it out for a bit!
ReplyDeleteLove date nights!
So glad you had a date night. We are really bad about doing that and we need to do it more often. And I love GNO. I always feel so refreshed afterwards.
ReplyDeleteI've been to the melting pot once, and it was so fun and delicious! Thanks for the chocolate fondue recipe. We just got a pot and I need a good one to try! Erin Henriksen :)
