Apple Cider Cheese Fondue

This fondue has become one of our Christmas Eve traditions.  It is very quick and easy to prepare and the whole family loves it.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup apple cider or apple juice
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1 Tbsp. cornstarch (apparently flour will work too)
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 loaf of French or sourdough bread, cubed (denser bread works better for dipping.  If bread is soft, let it sit out ahead of time to dry out a bit).

Directions:
In a saucepan, bring cider to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium-low.  Toss the cheeses together with cornstarch and pepper.  Cook and stir for 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted.  Transfer to a small ceramic fondue pot or slow cooker.  Serve with bread cubes.

If fondue gets too thick, add a little more hot cider to bring it to the right consistency.

Paula Deen Picks Longaberger

Paula Deen has selected Longaberger's Collegiate Series Baskets as one of “Paula’s Picks – The things I LOVE, from my home to yours” in her September/October issue of Cooking with Paula Deen.

Get Organized! Solution #17: Gather the Miscellaneous

You know all the little (and not so little) stuff that seems to collect near your arm chair or near the dining room table?  You know how much it bugs you?  Well, Longaberger has an attractive and very functional solution to those problems.  Their Sort and Store Small Rectangle Storage Basket (available in four stain colors) can hold a collection of items that you can hide from view with a beautiful woodcraft lid or leave open for easy access.  Put one on the bottom shelf of an end table or next to your bed or arm chair and you can quickly and easily "tidy up" by putting everything in the basket and topping it off with the lid!  Save yourself from going crazy and invest in some  beautiful organizational baskets--they're cheaper than a shrink!
