1st Dessert...Chocolate Mousse Dreams

I was invited to a birthday party that took place today. The minute I heard about it and was assigned dessert to bring for 8-10 I knew I would make chocolate mousse. I dreamed about it and decided that I wouldn't tempt the fates, and would make the mousse.

I so often times make things based on my mood and for some reason I felt very connected to this mousse. As I started whisking over the double boiler I realized that this was to be my first dessert in my new kitchen.

When we left the house on the last trip the cook top gas had just been hooked up the afternoon before we left so I didn't get to cook on it even once.

This trip that has changed. I have created on my new cook top a bunch of times. I have mastered the dinner but but a successful dessert was still pending.

As you can see, I made dark chocolate mousse. It was so fun to make my first dessert. I loved it. Even though we have tons of work to complete the kitchen, I am loving it and enjoying it and can't wait to make my second and third and hundredth and thousandth dessert.

So, we are counting snow and dessert now. Can you stand it? I understand if you can't...I am a super freak!
