fondue night

Yesterday we had some people over for fondue. The cheese fondue was so-so; even though we used European wine, it still separated too easily, and required reheating every so often. I think next time I will try an even drier wine, and maybe more cornstarch or flour. The chocolate fondue turned out well; I added Grand Marnier to the chocolate, cream, and sugar, which I think worked out well. Nothing like fondue on a cold night, especially on a Thursday with two NBA games to watch. Okay, it's not really "cold" these days, but it is getting dark earlier so it definitely feels like fall.
