The last day of summer



School starts tomorrow. For us, that means Kindergarten and 5th grade, as well as the annual dessert tradition that is now in it's 4th year. 4 years ago, when J. was going into first grade, he asked to celebrate the end of summer with a special dessert. For the life of me, I can't tell you what special dessert he chose. But when we repeated the tradition the following year, we had chocolate fondue. He's chosen chocolate fondue for the past two years as well. So it's often warm, and waspy as we finish our night-before-school dinner and bust out the fondue pot. No New Year's Eve's or Valentine's Day here -- it's all about Labor Day.
