Fondu melts away the past decade and brings me back to my 15 years of pink tights, pointe shoes and performances as a ballerina gracefully bending the knee of my supporting leg. Add some vodka, a Pier 1 gift card and the letter ‘e’ and the term, Fondue takes on an entirely new meaning. For a late night summer supper, Trey and I took to the sticks and the stovetop for an easy meal that would be great for a couple’s dinner party or ultimate cheese craving.
