I seriously don’t know why it took me so long to have a cheese fondue party! I guess it’s because I didn’t own a fondue pot till recently. I actually picked it up at Real Canadian Superstore for $5. What a score!!

Then I discovered this product (PC Swiss Fondue) which makes throwing a Cheese Fondue Party even easier. Oh how I love PC Products!

-a cheese tray with Beemster and Empire Cheddar with Mustard Seeds that I picked up at the Delicious Show).
–PC Holiday Treats such as The Decadent Chocolate Cake and Candy Cane Chocolate Squares.

I can guarantee you that I will be hosting another Cheese Fondue Party over the holidays. It’s a great way to entertain!

I live close to a Real Canadian Superstore and I am ever so grateful. I love being able to buy Joe Fresh, PC products for my house, and buy groceries ALL at the same time. (probably in that order too). Infact, I always seem to enter the store on the RIGHT so I can make the important purchases first.
Infact, they recently renovated the Superstore at Dufferin/Steeles and I think the new layout, lighting, shelving units etc. makes a huge difference.
While strolling thru the aisles last week, I noticed an (electronic) ORANGE JUICE MACHINE for $7.99. I figured that at that price, why shouldn’t I own one?

Then I went to the produce department to get oranges. I noticed they had a bag of oranges that would be suitable for orange juice AND
there was a bag next to them called PINK NAVEL ORANGES. . So I scooped up TWO big bags of oranges.

Pink Navel Oranges!!
When I got home, I took out my lovely new juice maker and bingo – in no time at all, there was a cup of orange juice. It cleaned easily and
I couldnt stop thinking “why have I not ever owned this machine before?”. Silly Me.
I also sliced up a pink navel orange. WOW…the color was gorgeous (pink with orange undertones) and it certainly had a distinct sweet flavor to them.
You would notice the difference between the two oranges instantly.
Lesson Learned: a) invest in an orange juice maker. It’s worth it. b) try the pink navel oranges. You will love them.
Happy Grocery Shopping!!
