For us it's traditionally Fondue. We will have cheese fondue with
French bread, blanched broccoli and cauliflower for dipping.
Wines will be a Sauvignon Blanc and a chilled Beaujolais.

Then beef, chicken and shrimp for cooking in hot oil along with a
tossed salad. Wines will be a Bordeaux and whatever sil provides.

Dessert is Chocolate Fondue with cake, marshmallows, strawberries,
pears etc. for dipping. Wine will probably be a red with Champagne
at the midnight hour.

It's a long leisurely dinner at our daughter and son-in-law's home.
The grandchildren and their dates and friends usually join us for
a wonderful evening.

New Year's Day is traditionally Pork and Sauerkraut along with lots
of football games to watch on TV.

Happy New Year everyone. Rusty
