Someone out there loves me, because they invented the coolest thing. It's the Fundueâ„¢ - the World's first desktop USB fondue set. Of course, there's no production model yet but whatever, it has everything I need!

Firstly, it's USB 2.0 powered, so we won't be having any more nasty flaming-hole-in-mom's-tablecloth incidents, like we did last Valentine's Day. It also, like our hot water pot, has an Auto-power off mode for decreased loss of life risk. We have found this particular feature less of a nicety and more of a requirement. The Fundueâ„¢ also has a LCD screen that not only shows the internal temperature, but also has the ability to show what mp3 is playing on your computer.

Yes, me want. You can check out a full writeup on the Fundueâ„¢, including a recipe, at ThinkGeek.com. The only thing that could possibly make this gadget any more tempting would be a matching USB-powered chocolate fountain, because we all know, the chocolate fountain is a catering necessity for every gathering.
