, I think what is great about keeping a blog is that it provides structure to our otherwise cluttered life. Everyday when I go to sleep I always make a mental list of the things I need to do the next day, make my sons weekly purees, or clean out my closet, get an assignment ready for a class.

As every chef worth his salt knows, all food should be served in a tower. It was with this in mind that Hamish and I prepared chocolate mousse on Friday for a friend’s birthday. I used some acetate and a plastic comb (made for cakes, not hair, don’t worry!) to make the ‘tower’ part, and then we layered white and dark chocolate mousse within.

The first chocolate mousse I ever ate came out of a box. Mum must have added water or some other liquid, stirred it into the dry ingredients, which probably included gelatine and powdered milk, and let the creamy chocolate-looking mixture "set up" in the fridge some time before dinner.

I'd definitely give this a 0/10 for presentation. I cannot tell you how ashamed i am to even share this you. God knows i tried to make a pretty one.

Ever since my constant eating companion went AWOL on me (wink!), I have not gone out to eat at all. I mostly stayed at my desk and befriended the trusty microwave at the office pantry. I guess I missed a lot during those bagged lunch days because I saw some new additions to the classic confections menu when I recently visited.

Filed under: Snacks, Dessert, Dairy, Recipes, Holidays This is a really weird holiday. I'm fine with the "chocolate" part of it, but I can't imagine eating this without getting tiny hairs or a tail stuck in my teeth. Oh, it's chocolate mousse. I had an Emily Litella moment there. It's National Chocolate Mousse Day.
