Christmas Season 2017/2018 - Fondue with Mom

Monday, January 1, 2018

We weren't able to do fondue with Mom on Christmas Eve this year so we instead did it today after seeing The Last Jedi at the Southdale theater. It was divine. I stirred the cheese while she looked on and added the Kirche while referring to the book she's used for years for the recipe. The page is splattered with cheese and oil and who knows what other remnants of food.  I checked to copyright date of the cook book and it dates to 1969.  We usually have steak after the cheese fondue but today we had salmon prepared by Dale. It too was divine. 

Christmas Season 2017/2018 - New Year's Day: The Last Jedi

Monday, January 1, 2018

Dale and I took Mom to see Star Wars: The Last Jedi today. It was a fun movie and so wonderful yet wistful to see Carrie Fisher on the big screen. Interesting to see her last night in When Harry Met Sally which was made nearly 30 years ago. I find it  tragic she's gone. Her wit, wisdom, humor, and beauty will be missed.
