When I was managing the Island we did, as most of you know, a lot of entertaining. This trip out to CA is exciting because we are taking a lot of our "entertaining" stuff because we know we'll be doing a lot more entertaining there.
But now Bob and I come to a disagreement. Should the chocolate fountain go into storage or go with us???? I just know you'll make the right decision.
You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!

Bring a fondue pot with forks. You can do a chocolate fondue.

I assume you want us all to say take it with you, but I have to agree with the others here, in fact, I think you should sell it on ebay. I have never understood the love for that silly contraption. Sorry, Sharon dear. I do love you.

Well I know that when you are organizing and paring things down it can be difficult to get rid of things. I have heard that you need to catagorize it into one of three catagories: Do you love it? Does it give you joy? Do you need it?
Now I didn't say it has to fall into all three catagories, just one. I say, do exactly what you want to do. Sounds like it would make you have to have it. So keep it for a while, if you don't use it, sell it on ebay or store it. Heck, send it to me, I will store it for you!

When we were visiting our daughter's campground a few weeks ago, there were several people who had card tables set up in front of their camp site with things for sale that they no longer wanted. At first I thought it was a little tacky for such a nice campground to allow this, but after walking around for a while and visiting with people, it was kind of fun.
So, I guess you could always do that if you find that the fountain isn't getting enough use...

Laura has a good point. Store it for a few months and if you find that you never did need it, sell it. But don't drag it with you. Yet.

Storage. I have problem with single use items - although I do own a few
. A microwave and a bowl and you can have some great fondu chocolate! Or get fancy and do it the right way.
