Fall and Food

Posted by in Katie's Blog on Sep 20, 2008

A quick post to share my excitement for fall.  My wonderful mom sent me a fall care package yesterday, chock full of fall decorations, including pumpkin-scented candles and an autumn cookbook (and tons more).  I’m so excited.  I went to the grocery store to pick up all the ingredients to make pumpkin soup tomorrow night, and Nik’s even agreed to taste it!  (He has backup hot dogs, just in case).

We attempted fondue for the first time last night, and are extremely proud of ourselves.  Our cheese fondue was perfect and tasted just like Melting Pot’s cheddar one.  It was incredible.  The main course broth was modeled after Melting Pot’s mojo broth.  It was tasty and very flavorful but a little too spicy for me.  We had Italian-marinated chicken and veggies to dip.  It was verrrrrry good.

Not too much else is going on.  We had a lazy morning today.  We made pancakes and I studied in my pajamas for awhile, then we went shopping.  We can’t stop shopping!  Hope everyone back home is doing well.
