Fondue Party

So, this weekend I took a little trip back to 1973.

My friend Whitney had a fondue party at her house. It was so much fun! There were about 8 of us and we ate for about 5 hours! If you've never done the fondue thing before, I highly recommend it!

1st Course: One couple brought the cheese and the fixings for the first course. We had really good bread, carrots, apples to dip in the cheese. The cheese recipe was some kind of cheese that I hadn't heard of, beer, onions, and garlic. It was AMAZING.

2nd Course: There were four of us who brought the fixing for the second course. We had squash, cauliflower, mushrooms, chicken, pork tenderloin, beef tips, and shrimp. All marinaded in something yummy and each had dipping sauces with it. It was all just so good. We cooked each of these meats in a coq au vin broth with garlic, vegtable broth, and red wine. It was SO good!

3rd Course: Dessert! Matt and Whitney did the dessert course. They had chocolate dip and then bananas, strawberries, marshmallows, marshmallows rolled in oreo, marshmallows rolled in graham cracker, regular marshmallows, rice crispy treats, and brownies. It was divine!

We all arrived around 6 and got started with the first course. Then the UT game started at 730 so we flipped it on, watched the first half, had the second course, watched the rest of the game, played a little Apples to Apples and then had dessert. It was good to have so much time in between courses because really, we ate so much food! It was wonderful and so good to be together with good friends and laugh and have fun!
