We are spending much of our wintertime in Tahoe, skiing, enjoying cabin life, and eating fondue. I’m in an alpine frame of mind.
I am having flashes of 1989 and my stint on the French-Swiss border as a radio intern for the Lake Geneva affiliate of the Voice of America Radio. This period of my life is when and where I acquired my fondness for the bubbling pot of the Alps. I’ve indulged in fondue every winter since.
It has been satisfying to work with my Napa Valley designer Gwyneth McKay and San Francisco-based furniture designer Ted Boerner. We are finalizing the plan details to create a memorable space for individual groups to have tactile and creative experiences.
