66. Have cheese fondue using cooked shrimp, bread cubes,

grapes, cherry tomatoes, raw broccoli spears, etc.

You can buy an electric fondue pot these days so it is easy to put it on the center table and heat the cheese up. Grocery stores have great cheese fondue in packets with the right cheese and Kirsh.

Sending you vibes on your cancer fight. When going through hell - KEEP GOING!!
