fondue and fondon't

so it was our first attempt at chocolate fondue.

i think things turned out alright, despite needing some additional help from dimsumdolly's mum to save our chocolate sauce!

we had some nice strawberries, kiwis, marshmallows and banana for dipping into the melted chocolate, and just for fun, a mini campfire (more like tealights) to roast the marshmallows on. (although some of them caught fire leaving burnt crisps that looked hazardous)

and though it was some work chopping up that gigantic kg block of dark chocolate she bought, it was worth it.

I reckon dimsumdolly will be putting up some pics soon.

today's dl:
Bic Runga's Good Morning Baby
(Just because I woke up before 10 today,decided to turn on the TV instead and watched MTV Cribs to find out the Craig David's got a great London flat and that Chicago White Sox player Jermaine Dye (i think) has a typical American celebrity mansion - a hugeass house but done up with absolutely no taste whatsoever, that is, with a lot of wood panelling in the kitchen, very boring beigeish colour tones, uninteresting furniture. That's what I've learnt on MTV Cribs. Huge monster mansions but absolutely no style. What a waste!).
